Governing the Quantum Shift: Introducing ‘PQC Manage’

Post-quantum cryptography (PQC) migration is no longer a one-off technical project; it is a permanent, operational shift that requires continuous governance. It’s also not longer as technical problem while PQC standards have been approved & govt across the globe setting deadlines for PQC migration.

As organizations embark on their PQC transition, the primary challenge has moved beyond simple algorithm replacement to the “cryptographic discovery problem” – the inability to identify where sensitive data is encrypted across your estate. The urgency has reached a new peak. The June 22, 2026, Executive Order on “Securing the Nation Against Advanced Cryptographic Attacks” underscores the immediate threat of “harvest now, decrypt later” operations by foreign adversaries.

The PQC Governance Gap: Why Spreadsheets Aren’t Enough

The industry standard for tracking migration has been, frankly, inadequate. Spreadsheets cannot capture the complexity of modern, hybrid environments. They lack the ability to link CBOM data, budget allocation, team accountability, and “proof of work” into a unified stream.

PQC migration requires a platform that understands the lifecycle of an asset – from discovery to deployment and validation.

To meet this challenge, we are proud to introduce PQC Manage, a powerful new feature set integrated directly into PKI Insights. By unifying Certificate Lifecycle Management (CLM), PKI monitoring, and PQC migration into a single deployment, PQC Manage provides the command center your organization needs to move from discovery to continuous compliance.

Operationalizing Your PQC Migration

PQC Manage is designed to take your organization from high-level planning to granular execution, aligning with strategy for designated migration leads and comprehensive asset tracking. Here is how you can operationalize the migration lifecycle:

• Strategic Foundation: Start by identifying your PQC migration leads, a critical requirement for accountability and establishing a high-level budget to manage the overall initiative.

• Comprehensive Inventory: Import your full asset inventory whether it consists of Cloud, Software, or Hardware to satisfy the government’s requirement for rigorous HVA and high-impact system review.

• Granular Assignments: Assign specific assets to team members, ensuring clear accountability for every system covered under new federal cybersecurity standards.

• Contextual Intelligence (CBOM): Import your Cryptographic Bill of Materials (CBOM) against these assets. This prepares your organization for upcoming CISA guidance on minimum elements for cryptographic transparency.

• Verified Proof of Work: Teams provide proofs along the way, ensuring you have a concrete, audit-ready record of what was done, when it was done, and by whom essential for demonstrating compliance to oversight bodies.

• Continuous Tracking: Maintain complete history and receive daily summary reports on your PQC health and migration metrics.

Visibility That Informs Decisions

Once your strategy is in motion, PQC Manage provides stakeholders with a real-time pulse of the organization. You can easily visualize status across more than 20 aspects, including:

• PQC Health & Inventory State: Know exactly where you stand across your entire estate, including your high-impact systems.

• Migration Deadlines: See precisely how teams are performing against the transition milestones.

• Cryptographic & Asset Completeness: Ensure that no asset is left in a vulnerable state.

• PQC Agility & Confidence

PQC migration is now a continuous governance cycle. You need a platform where stakeholders work collaboratively to achieve a common goal, rather than relying on disparate lists.

More features for the Swiss Army Knife

With PQC Manage now part of PKI Insights, you have a single deployment that delivers CLM, PKI monitoring, and PQC migration capabilities. It is time to treat your quantum readiness with the same rigor as any other critical security infrastructure.
