Prepare for Post-Quantum Cybersecurity
As quantum computing technology advances, traditional encryption methods that rely on the difficulty of factoring large numbers or solving discrete logarithm problems become vulnerable. Understanding your IT assets, including the encryption methods and algorithms used, is crucial for identifying systems and data at risk from future quantum attacks. This understanding is the first step in transitioning to post-quantum cryptography.
Enhancing Your Cybersecurity While Preparing for Post-Quantum Cryptography
Understanding your IT assets allows you to create a strategy to mitigate the disadvantages of quantum computing and embrace post-quantum cryptography.
“If you want to know how the environment works, the last place you should look is the shared drive for the system administrator. Figure out for yourself what’s going on because the people who manage it don’t know.”

Know Your Assets So You Can Protect Them
To fully leverage the advantages and disadvantages of quantum cryptography, you need to develop a thorough approach.
The Redjack platform employs an AI engine to analyze communications between your IT assets to build a comprehensive map of your connected IT environment.
Armed with this information, you can develop a data-centric strategy to improve the efficiency of both your IT operations and overall business functions. This transforms cybersecurity into a valuable asset, enhancing cyber resilience and strategic planning.
The Redjack Approach
The benefits of a communications-based approach to IT asset management include:
Speed: Quickly get a comprehensive inventory that updates dynamically as your environment changes
Visibility: Sensors collect data from cloud, on-premises, and container-based assets alike, eliminating the need to collect and compile separate sets of data
Scalability: Collect petabytes of communications flow data across large enterprises with minimal effort
Prioritization: Optimize your planning to prioritize your efforts on the most important, business-critical functions
Understand interdependencies between critical functions and assets
Locate weak points in your organization, such as shadow IT or clusters of insecure systems connected to a critical business function
