Choose Crypto-Agility
The challenges
Evolving your cryptography: an uphill battle
It is common to find cryptographic setups within organizations that are fragmented and lack consistency, with static implementations and a lack of centralized oversight. In this context, updating or upgrading cryptographic systems is both particularly challenging and absolutely essential to prepare for the quantum threat and stay aligned with constantly evolving standards.
Distributed Cryptography
“ Our cryptography is distributed across our entire system, with no centralized oversight or control.”
Consequences :
- Uncontrolled cryptographic drift
- Hidden vulnerabilities
- Increased operational complexity
Hard-coded algorithms
“ Everything is hard-coded: even the smallest change becomes complex, if not impossible.”
Conséquences:
- Inability to respond quickly to security changes
- Significant technical debt that grows over time
- Strong resistance to migrating to PQC
Lack of a common cryptographic framework
“ We don’t have a centralized cryptographic policy: each department chooses its own algorithms and key sizes.”
Consequences:
- Varying levels of security depending on the application
- Difficulty in demonstrating compliance
- Complex risk management
Manual cryptography management
“ We manually manage keys, certificates, and cryptographic updates: a time-consuming approach that is prone to errors and difficult to scale as systems evolve.”
Consequences:
- High risk of human error
- Structural inefficiency
- Delays in adopting standards
“Cryptographic agility is emerging as a priority for organizations and is becoming one of the most critical issues for stakeholders.”
Our Approach
Deploy Crypto-Agility
CryptoNext CAPTAIN enables organizations to deploy cryptographic agility at the enterprise level. By centralizing governance and enabling secure, seamless algorithm upgrades—including transitions to PQC—without requiring application rewrites, CAPTAIN transforms cryptography into a controlled, scalable asset that aligns with current and future regulatory requirements.
01
Centralized cryptographic governance
Unify cryptography management to eliminate inconsistencies and technical debt that accumulate when each application or team makes its own decisions. CryptoNext CAPTAIN centralizes the definition and enforcement of cryptographic policies across the entire information system.
Ensure compliance with current standards, eliminate deviations, and gain complete, real-time visibility into the status of your cryptography.
02
Crypto-agility and real-time updates
Adapt cryptographic algorithms in record time—including to post-quantum standards—without modifying or rewriting the affected applications. CryptoNext CAPTAIN empowers organizations to respond instantly to the emergence of a vulnerability or a new standard.
Drastically reduce response time while maintaining operational continuity, turning crypto-agility into a concrete strategic advantage in the face of constantly evolving threats.
03
Operational efficiency and reduced risk
Automate key and certificate lifecycle management, policy deployment, and compliance reporting to free your teams from time-consuming, error-prone manual tasks. CryptoNext CAPTAIN makes these operations reliable, scalable, and traceable across the entire organization. This allows teams to focus on higher-value tasks, while significantly reducing blind spot management.
04
Strengthen compliance and PQC readiness
Rely on centralized governance and full traceability to pass audits and demonstrate compliance with new cryptographic standards. CryptoNext CAPTAIN provides the necessary documented evidence while keeping your organization prepared for upcoming regulatory changes, particularly those related to the mandatory adoption of post-quantum cryptography by national security agencies and European regulators.
Why CryptoNext Security?
Drive your cryptographic policies at scale
Free your applications from hard-coded cryptography
CryptoNext CAPTAIN abstracts cryptographic operations from applications using CAPTAIN Provider technology. Algorithms are updated centrally, without modifying the application code, thereby eliminating the main barrier to large-scale cryptographic updates.
PQC-ready solutions
CryptoNext CAPTAIN features native integration of CryptoNext’s NIST-validated post-quantum library. Standardized PQC algorithms can be deployed directly from the governance interface without any additional development, ensuring a smooth and controlled transition to post-quantum security.
Compatible with all cryptographic providers
CryptoNext CAPTAIN integrates with a wide range of traditional cryptographic providers. Centralize governance without disrupting the existing infrastructure while gaining greater consistency and control over your entire cryptographic ecosystem.
Centralized Cryptographic Governance
CryptoNext CAPTAIN centralizes the management of cryptographic policies within the organization. Security teams can define, enforce, and update rules regarding algorithms, key sizes, or parameters without modifying applications. This approach simplifies administration, ensures consistent practices, and reduces risks associated with fragmented configurations.

Cryptography Is The Foundation Of Digital Trust
Cryptography is the root of digital trust. If it fails, signatures, transactions, and encrypted data become vulnerable. In the face of quantum threats, a clear cryptographic inventory is the essential first step to protect your organization.
Cryptographic Discovery: The First Step Toward Post-Quantum Resilience
Cryptographic assets remain one of the least visible yet most critical parts of today’s digital infrastructure. As the quantum threat intensifies and regulations evolve, cryptographic discovery becomes a foundational step, enabling organizations to gain visibility, reduce risk, and prepare for a secure transition to post-quantum cryptography.
Cryptography and the Quantum Era: What is the IT Risk for Organizations?
Cryptography is the backbone of cybersecurity. But the advent of quantum computing challenges a security model that has been considered unbreakable for 40 years. Faced with this systemic risk, post-quantum cryptography (PQC) stands as the only credible path to preserving confidentiality, integrity, and digital trust.
