Description

What it is and what it is for

AI-assisted draft · independently checked

Post-quantum cryptography is the work of designing the digital locks that protect data so they are thought to resist attack by a future quantum computer. The hard part for a large organisation is migration: cryptography rarely announces itself plainly in code, so it is difficult to know where the vulnerable kinds in use today are used. CryptoLabe is an internal Cloudflare tool that uses AI to scan code repositories in two stages, first finding where cryptography appears, then analysing how it is used. Its reports are written for product managers and for engineers. Cloudflare describes it as highly specialised to its own systems and still under development.

Written from primary sources and reference pages, and checked against them by an independent AI fact-checker. Drafted with AI assistance.
