3. Administrator

Documentation for system administrators on deploying and managing the PQ cryptography infrastructure.

Contents

Section Description
3.1 Installation System requirements, OpenSSL, .NET Runtime
3.2 Configuration Environment variables, paths, FIPS mode
3.3 Operations Health checks, certificates via CLI, trust stores
3.4 Troubleshooting CLI diagnostics, common errors

Dependency Matrix

What we provide vs. what you provide:

Component Supplier Version How to obtain
WvdS.Crypto Library EMSR DATA 1.0.x NuGet (developers)
OpenSSL OpenSSL Foundation 3.6.0+ Admin installs
.NET Runtime Microsoft 8.0+ Admin installs
OS Trust Store Operating System - Pre-existing

OpenSSL 3.6.0+ is mandatory for ML-DSA and ML-KEM support. Older versions do not support post-quantum algorithms.

System Requirements

Component Minimum Recommended
.NET Runtime 8.0 8.0 LTS
OpenSSL 3.6.0 3.6.0+
RAM 512 MB 1 GB+
Storage 100 MB 500 MB (with keys)

Operating Systems:

  • Windows 10/11, Windows Server 2019+
  • Linux (Ubuntu 22.04+, RHEL 8+, Debian 12+)
  • macOS 13+ (Ventura)

Deployment Checklist

# 1. Check OpenSSL version
openssl version
# Expected: OpenSSL 3.6.0 or higher
 
# 2. PQ algorithms available?
openssl list -signature-algorithms | grep -i ml-dsa
openssl list -kem-algorithms | grep -i ml-kem
 
# 3. Check .NET Runtime
dotnet --list-runtimes | grep "Microsoft.NETCore.App 8"
 
# 4. Check providers
openssl list -providers
  1. [x] OpenSSL 3.6.0+ installed
  2. [x] ML-DSA and ML-KEM algorithms available
  3. [x] .NET 8.0+ Runtime installed
  4. [ ] Environment variables configured → Configuration
  5. [ ] Health check successful → Operations
  6. [ ] Backup strategy defined

Quick Start for Admins

Windows (PowerShell as Administrator): 

# Check OpenSSL
& "C:\Program Files\OpenSSL\bin\openssl.exe" version
 
# Set PATH (if not present)
[Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable("Path", $env:Path + ";C:\Program Files\OpenSSL\bin", "Machine")
 
# Verify
openssl list -signature-algorithms | Select-String "ML-DSA"

Linux (bash): 

# Check OpenSSL
openssl version -a
 
# Check PQ support
openssl list -signature-algorithms | grep -i "ml-dsa"
openssl list -kem-algorithms | grep -i "ml-kem"
