Enterprise cryptographic governance platform

Govern cryptographic change before it becomes operational disruption.

The hard part isn’t choosing an algorithm. It’s knowing what you use, where it sits, who owns it, and how to change it without breaking the business.

CipherWyze provides the system of record, governance model and programme execution capability required to manage cryptographic transformation at enterprise scale.

01 — Reality Curve

Cryptographic transitions become customer-impacting operational events.

The challenge is rarely the algorithm. The challenge is coordinating change safely across thousands of assets, systems, suppliers and stakeholders.

When cryptographic change is not coordinated early, organisations are forced into reactive migrations under pressure. The SHA-1 certificate transition demonstrated what happens when cryptographic change reaches enforcement deadlines before organisations and customers are ready.

02 — The Transition Window

The challenge is not the deadline. The challenge is executing cryptographic change safely at enterprise scale.

Cryptographic transitions are not technology projects. They are multi-year transformation programmes involving systems, applications, vendors, customers, regulators and operational teams.

Most organisations underestimate the time required to inventory, prioritise, validate, coordinate, migrate and evidence cryptographic change. Late starts compress execution windows and significantly increase delivery risk.

“Cryptographic transitions fail operationally before they fail mathematically.”

The Transition Window: years of coordinated activity across inventory, assessment, testing, vendor coordination, migration, evidence and continuous governance. Late starts compress the window and increase risk.
03 — Enterprise Cryptographic Transformation

Cryptographic change extends across the entire enterprise technology estate.

It impacts identities, certificates, protocols, APIs, cloud infrastructure, software delivery pipelines, suppliers, operational technology, embedded systems and long-lived data.

The objective is not simply to replace algorithms. The objective is to govern enterprise-wide cryptographic transformation.

Enterprise cryptographic transformation — ten domains across four familiesTen domains where cryptographic change lands, grouped into four families. Identity and trust: PKI and certificates; identity and access. Applications and data: APIs and services; long-lived data. Devices and ecosystem: suppliers and partners; embedded systems; software integrity; IoT and OT. Networks and infrastructure: cloud and infrastructure; TLS and protocols.IDENTITY & TRUSTAPPLICATIONS & DATADEVICES & ECOSYSTEMNETWORKS & INFRASTRUCTUREPKI andCertificates(CAs, Certificates,HSMs)Identity andAccess(SSO, MFA, Tokens)APIs andServices(APIs, Gateways,Microservices)Long-livedData(Archives, Backups,Signatures)Suppliers andPartners(Vendors, Libraries,Services)EmbeddedSystems(Firmware, Bootloaders,Secure Elements)SoftwareIntegrity(Code Signing,Updates, CI/CD)IoT and OT(Sensors, PLCs,Industrial Systems)Cloud andInfrastructure(Cloud, KMS, IaC,Containers)TLS andProtocols(TLS, mTLS, VPNs)EnterpriseCryptographicTransformation
Regulated environments

Built for organisations where cryptography underpins identity, payments, infrastructure, customer trust and regulated services.

Board & audit evidence

Designed for programmes that need ownership, evidence, auditability and executive reporting — not just technical findings.

Standards-aware

Supports cryptographic governance across PKI, TLS, PQC, certificate lifecycle, algorithm exposure and digital operational resilience.

05 — Evidence

The report that goes to your board is signed. Twice.

Navigator signs its programme governance reports with two signatures: Ed25519, and ML-DSA-65 — the post-quantum signature standard NIST published in 2024. Any alteration to a published report is detectable, and the key that issued it is provable.

We did it that way for the same reason we would advise you to. During a transition you carry both: the classical signature is what today’s verification tooling understands, and the post-quantum one protects the record’s integrity into exactly the period the transition exists to prepare for.

A platform built to govern your post-quantum transition should have made its own.

What the signature does not do is vouch for the content. It proves the report is unaltered and identifies who issued it. Whether the decisions inside it were the right ones remains the judgement of the people who made them — and Navigator says so, on the verification screen, rather than leaving you to assume the proof covers more than it does.

06 — Navigator Applications

One platform. Multiple cryptographic governance applications.

Navigator is deployed against the cryptographic governance use cases enterprises face today — and the ones emerging over the next decade.
