We've Been Scanning the Wrong Risk Surface. That Changes in April.

Most organisations score vendors on what is exploitable today. They are not looking at what is already being harvested for tomorrow. CyberRank's Quantum AI Exposure Discovery, launching April 2026, addresses the gap that every existing vendor risk tool has missed: quantum cryptographic exposure across your vendor ecosystem.
I want to tell you something that has been sitting uncomfortably with me for the better part of two years. Something I have seen across audits in government institutions, financial services, data centres, and critical infrastructure on multiple continents.
Most organisations are managing their third-party risk against the wrong threat timeline. They are scoring vendors on what is exploitable today. They are not looking at what is already being harvested for tomorrow.
In over 20 years of security audits across ANZ, the EU, and North America, I have sat in a lot of rooms where organisations present their vendor risk posture with confidence. They show questionnaire results, risk scores, and compliance attestations. And then I ask: What is your vendors cryptographic posture? Are any of them running RSA-2048 on systems that store data you need to protect for the next five to ten years? The room goes quiet. Not because the question is unusual. Because nobody has a tool that answers it at scale.
That is the gap we built Quantum AI Exposure Discovery to fill.
The threat driving this is called Harvest Now, Decrypt Later. Adversaries are collecting encrypted data today and will decrypt it once a capable quantum computer exists. Data with long shelf-lives such as government secrets, health records, and financial contracts is already at risk. Intelligence agencies have been warning about this for years.
What we built performs cryptographic signal mapping across your entire vendor ecosystem using non-invasive passive analysis. It applies AI-driven risk scoring weighted by the data categories each vendor handles. It maps each vendor cryptographic posture against NIST FIPS 203, 204, and 205 standards. And it monitors continuously, alerting you when any vendor risk profile changes materially.
Regulators are moving. The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority added post-quantum cryptography to its 2025 annual risk report. Canada has already set federal deadlines requiring PQC migration plans by April 2026. The EU is developing parallel frameworks.
The organisations who can produce a vendor-by-vendor quantum cryptographic posture assessment with a dated evidence trail will be in a fundamentally different position from those who cannot.
CyberRank Quantum AI Exposure Discovery launches April 2026, available to all existing customers and as a core feature for new customers.
