ProteQC Information

ProteQC PQC Advisory Limited (Company number 16935613) Knowledge, Experience, Excellence in Post Quantum Cryptography (PQC) What ProteQC Does: * Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) Advisory: Offers strategic guidance on transitioning from current crypto to quantum-resistant algorithms. * Crypto-Agility: Helps build systems that can easily switch cryptographic algorithms to minimize disruption. * Vendor-Independent: Provides objective advice, not tied to specific product vendors. Services: Includes training, risk assessments, strategy development, and ongoing support for quantum readiness. Why It's Important: * Harvest-Now, Decrypt-Later Threat: Data encrypted today can be stored and decrypted later by powerful quantum computers. * Regulatory Pressure: Financial firms face increasing mandates (like DORA) to secure sensitive data for the long term. * Strategic Advantage: Early preparation leads to lower costs and less disruption compared to reactive migrations. How We're different: * Our Pre-Discovery(TM) methodology ensures that financial sector organisations are properly-prepared for PQC transitions, with business governance, training, policy updates, budgets and ownership in place from the outset * This contrasts with typical approaches promoted both by technology tool vendors and technology standards bodies by not addressing organisational needs and priorities up-front tend to create confusion and store up delays, extending implementation timescales
