Crypto Discovery Tool (CDT)

Many organizations lack a clear understanding of where and how cryptography is used across their environments, from keys and certificates to the algorithms and protocols embedded in applications and third party code. Without this visibility, risks remain hidden, audits become complex, and preparing for post quantum security becomes difficult.

QuantumGate’s Crypto Discovery Tool (CDT) provides a centralized view of an organization’s cryptographic landscape. CDT scans endpoints, servers, networks, cloud, and hybrid environments to identify and classify cryptographic assets, including those embedded in systems, applications, and network communications.

The platform builds a structured inventory of:

• Keys and certificates • Cryptographic libraries • Algorithms and protocols

This enables security and risk teams to move from fragmented visibility to comprehensive visibility and actionable insights into their cryptographic posture.

**Key Capabilities **

CDT helps detect:

• Weak or outdated cryptographic algorithms • Misconfigurations and policy violations • Expired, duplicated, or unused certificates and keys

Each finding is assessed based on severity and exposure, and mapped to dependent systems, allowing teams to prioritize remediation based on actual risk rather than treating all findings equally.

**Compliance & Regulatory Alignment **

CDT includes built in reporting and preconfigured templates aligned with UAE Cyber Security Council requirements. The compliance engine can be updated to reflect evolving regulatory guidance, supporting ongoing audit readiness and post quantum transition planning.

**Cloud Coverage (AWS) **

CDT extends its cryptographic discovery capabilities into AWS environments by identifying and analyzing cryptographic configurations across key cloud services. This includes visibility into encryption usage, key management practices, and certificate deployments within resources such as:

• Amazon S3 buckets
• Amazon EFS file systems • Amazon RDS databases • Amazon Redshift clusters • AWS Key Management Service keys • AWS Certificate Manager certificate • AWS Private CA

This enables organizations to assess cryptographic posture across cloud-native services, detect misconfigurations or weak encryption practices, and ensure alignment with internal policies and regulatory requirements.

**Deployment & Integration **

CDT can be deployed:

• Fully on premises • In AWS and other cloud platforms • In hybrid environments

This ensures sensitive cryptographic data remains under organizational control without external data transfer.

The platform integrates with SIEM and other security systems to support continuous monitoring, policy enforcement, and seamless integration into existing security workflows.

**Why CDT **

Unlike generic vulnerability scanners, CDT is purpose built for cryptography. It provides deep visibility, contextual risk insights, and structured inventory reporting.

Combined with QuantumGate’s advisory services, CDT enables organizations to establish a strong foundation for a quantum resilient security posture and confidently plan their transition to post quantum cryptography.
