DuoKey Launches Quantum Risk Score at VivaTech Paris

Today at VivaTech Paris, DuoKey, a leading Swiss cryptographic security firm, has unveiled the Quantum Risk Score (QRS), a groundbreaking tool designed to aid organizations in evaluating their vulnerabilities to quantum threats. This innovative assessment enables businesses to pinpoint exactly where to initiate their migration towards post-quantum cryptography.

Understanding the Urgency

With regulatory deadlines not just on the horizon but accelerating, many organizations remain unsure of their current status regarding quantum preparedness. Major mandates, such as the NSA’s CNSA 2.0, will come into effect in 2027, while NIST has confirmed the deprecation of RSA-2048 and ECDSA—the foundational elements of enterprise encryption—by 2030. Meanwhile, cybercriminals are actively hoarding encrypted data, betting on their ability to decrypt it when quantum computing capabilities advance. Those organizations that have yet to commence their migration faces a tangible and growing threat.

A Solution for Clarity

While awareness about the quantum transition increases, many security teams find themselves without a clear, auditable overview of their situation. This lack of clarity hinders them from taking prioritized action. To address this concern, DuoKey has introduced the QRS, a structured assessment that quantifies an organization's readiness for post-quantum migration.

The Quantum Risk Score evaluates an organization’s observable online presence using publicly accessible data. It generates a composite score from 0 to 100, which effectively represents the organization’s vulnerability level. Importantly, the assessment does not require access to internal network systems, allowing for swift deployment and ease of use.

Detailed Insights and Actionable Recommendations

Each assessment produces a comprehensive board-ready report that includes:

• - A thorough cryptographic inventory
• - A prioritized migration matrix
• - A regulatory gap analysis based on various frameworks like NIST, CNSA 2.0, NCSC, ANSSI, and BSI
• - A 36-month roadmap for migration

In addition, organizations receiving the QRS can benefit from a 30-minute debrief with the DuoKey team to better understand their results and plan their next steps.

Moving from Score to Strategy

The Quantum Risk Score aims to provide two essential functions: first, it gives organizational leaders a credible, auditable picture of their exposure; second, it offers technical teams a clear starting point for remediation efforts. By aligning directly with compliance timelines, the QRS allows businesses to structure their migration tasks according to regulatory deadlines, rather than navigating uncertainties.

Whether addressing a board's inquiries, answering auditor questions, or simply seeking knowledge about how to proceed, the Quantum Risk Score delivers immediate insights and direction.

How to Get Started

Organizations interested in understanding their current exposure can initiate the QRS assessment at no cost. The scope is limited to publicly observable signals, ensuring a straightforward start to the evaluation process.
