Post-quantum security services
Make your cryptography quantum-ready—with clear risk and a practical plan.
Smith Networks helps enterprise, government, and financial services teams identify cryptographic exposure, quantify risk, and plan migration aligned to relevant standards.
Core services
Engagements are scoped for your environment and delivered as actionable outputs—technical findings for engineers and board-ready reporting for leadership.
Cryptographic risk assessment
Inventory crypto usage, identify weak/legacy algorithms, and map exposure across applications, infrastructure, and third parties.
Exposure scoring
Prioritize remediation with a transparent scoring model that reflects asset criticality, data sensitivity, and migration complexity.
Board-ready reporting
Clear executive narrative, risk heatmaps, and decision-ready recommendations aligned to your governance process.
Migration planning
Target-state architecture, phased roadmap, and dependencies for transitioning to post-quantum cryptography.
Standards alignment
Map requirements and evidence to relevant standards and guidance (e.g., NIST and industry frameworks) to support audits and oversight.
4G/5G lab validation (optional)
Network emulation and validation to test performance, interoperability, and security assumptions in controlled conditions.
How engagements work
A rigorous approach that fits your governance and delivery cadence
From discovery to roadmap, we keep scope tight, evidence traceable, and outputs usable across engineering, risk, and leadership stakeholders.
1) Discovery & scope
Define systems in scope, data classes, threat assumptions, and success criteria. Establish stakeholders and reporting format.
2) Crypto inventory & evidence collection
Identify cryptographic primitives, key management, protocols, libraries, certificates, and third-party dependencies.
3) Exposure scoring & findings review
Quantify risk and migration effort, validate findings with engineering teams, and agree on prioritization.
4) Migration roadmap & executive readout
Deliver a phased plan, target-state recommendations, and a leadership-ready briefing to drive decisions and funding.
