Free, online resource assesses PQC readiness by
generating and testing Quantum-Safe certificates
AppViewX, the leader in automated certificate lifecycle
management (CLM) and PKI solutions, today announced the AppViewX
PQC Test Center, which allows organizations to assess their PQC
readiness and take steps to achieve PQC resiliency. This free
online service enables users to generate and test Quantum-Safe
certificates today.
Quantum computing has the potential to break traditional
encryption methods that protect all modern enterprises and secure
valuable data as the foundation of cybersecurity. This capability
threatens to undermine the cryptographic foundations of current
internet protocols, financial systems, and data privacy practices.
The transition to quantum-resistant cryptographic algorithms poses
several operational and security challenges, including finding and
replacing vulnerable certificates across multi-cloud/hybrid
environments while generating and deploying stronger, replacement
Quantum-safe certificates that can withstand quantum attacks.
Last year, the National Institute of Standards and Technology
(NIST) selected four cryptographic algorithms designed to withstand
attack by quantum computers. The security agency is now in the
process of standardizing these — with four new cryptographic
algorithms expected to be ready for use as early as next month. The
AppViewX PQC Test Center enables IT and security leaders,
developers, and engineers to begin testing Quantum-safe
certificates prior to integrating them into their infrastructures,
workloads and machines.
“The AppViewX Test Center represents our ongoing commitment to
helping organizations prepare for and smoothly transition to the
post-quantum era,” said Muralidharan Palanisamy, Chief Solutions
Officer for AppViewX. “These efforts also include continuously
updating our cryptographic libraries to include post-quantum
algorithms as they become standardized, and providing expert
training and guidance to help customers and partners understand the
implications of quantum computing on cybersecurity and how to
prepare for potentially catastrophic risks in the future.”
How the AppViewX PQC Test Center Works
AppViewX is dedicated to helping organizations prepare for the
reality of a sufficiently powerful quantum computer capable of
running Shor’s algorithm, which could break classic public key
cryptographic algorithms. To help organizations prepare and achieve
PQC resiliency, the AppViewX PQC Test Center enables users to
quickly set up their own Quantum-Safe PKI hierarchy and generate
PQC ready certificates and keys to test compatibility in their
environment. The AppViewX PQC Test Center allows registered users
to:
- Set up their own hosted Quantum-Safe PKI in the AppViewX PQC
Test Center
- Create an intermediate CA capable of signing End Entity
certificates for TLS, S/MIME, Client Authentication, Time Stamping,
Code Signing, and more
- Generate Quantum-Safe certificates to begin testing PQC
readiness
In addition to the PQC test Center, the AVX ONE platform offers
a comprehensive certificate lifecycle management solution to help
enable PQC readiness and crypto agility with complete certificate
discovery and inventory, full certificate lifecycle automation and
total certificate control across the enterprise.
