CRYPTOGRAPHY

Your encryption holds today. And can be replaced tomorrow

Nobody knows today which algorithm will still hold in five years. What you can plan for is something else: whether you can swap it out without touching the application.

What you get

  • Your keys and certificates – one place that issues, renews and revokes them – run as a service, not as your second data centre (PKI as a service). No certificate whose expiry date nobody knows
  • Your key exchange – built hybrid: classical and quantum-resistant at the same time. A switch then needs no cut-over date
  • Your signatures – handled separately from transport. A signature under a contract must still be verifiable in ten years, a session key does not

How a replacement works

  1. Find the algorithms
  2. Separate from the application
  3. Run both at once
  4. New one first
  5. Retire the old one

Algorithms and key lengths follow BSI TR-02102 and the NIST standards for ML-KEM and ML-DSA. Where a certified cryptographic module is required, we build against one – the certificate itself is issued by the certification body, not by us.

Do you know which algorithm sits where in your systems?
