The "Y2Q" Countdown

The "Harvest Now, Decrypt Later" (HNDL) strategy is well underway. Nation-states are capturing encrypted traffic today, waiting for the day a sufficiently powerful quantum computer can break RSA and Elliptic Curve cryptography. If your data is sensitive for more than 5 years, it is already at risk.

Implementing Crypto-Agility

1-SEC's modular architecture is designed for the transition to Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC).

Monitoring for Weak Cipher Suites

1-SEC's Network Guardian flags any use of legacy encryption that is particularly vulnerable to quantum-assisted attacks, helping teams identify which parts of their infrastructure need an immediate PQC upgrade.

Hybrid Protocol Support

As a single binary that manages its own networking stack, 1-SEC can be updated to support hybrid PQC-ECC handshakes globally, ensuring your data is protected by the latest NIST-approved algorithms as soon as they are finalized.
