Rocket® Quantum Safety Analyzer™ (RQSA)

Discover, prioritize, and remediate quantum-vulnerable cryptography before tomorrow's threats compromise today's data.

Strengthen your mainframe post-quantum readiness

The most sensitive data on your mainframe is already at risk, and you may not be able to see it. Attackers are harvesting encrypted information today, planning to decrypt it once quantum computing matures. This is the Harvest Now, Decrypt Later (HNDL) threat, and it targets the exact data you're trusted to protect for decades.

RQSA gives security and compliance teams the visibility to identify, assess, and prioritize cryptographic risk across z/OS environments. It turns an abstract future threat into a clear, manageable program, so you can reduce migration complexity, strengthen compliance readiness, and plan your transition to quantum-resilient security with confidence. 

Monitor, assess, and future-proof your cryptographic environment

RQSA delivers visibility across the cryptographic services that matter most, including ICSF activity, RACF keyrings and certificates, USS environments, OpenSSL implementations, SSH configurations, and cryptographic coprocessors. You'll pinpoint where quantum-vulnerable cryptography lives and understand which risks demand attention first.

Comprehensive cryptographic discovery

Automatically identify cryptographic assets, algorithms, certificates, key stores, and dependencies across your z/OS environment. See exactly where quantum-vulnerable cryptography exists, and understand its business impact.

Quantum risk assessment

Detect exposure to quantum-vulnerable algorithms, including RSA, ECC, legacy hashing methods, and embedded cryptographic implementations. Quantify your risk and know which systems need to move first.

Cryptographic inventory and visibility

Build a centralized view of cryptographic usage across applications, infrastructure, security services, and communication protocols. Eliminate blind spots and create a solid foundation for post-quantum planning.

Prioritized remediation guidance

Move beyond discovery. Get actionable intelligence that helps your team prioritize remediation based on risk, data sensitivity, regulatory exposure, and business impact, so effort goes where it counts.

Post-quantum migration planning

Build a structured roadmap toward cryptographic agility and post-quantum readiness. Understand scope, dependencies, and potential challenges before modernization begins, not after.

Continuous monitoring and governance

Track your cryptographic posture over time, measure remediation progress, and align your practices with evolving industry standards, regulatory expectations, and emerging post-quantum guidance.

Use cases

Identify exposure to Harvest Now, Decrypt Later threats

Mainframes hold highly sensitive data that must stay confidential for decades. RQSA helps you identify the assets most at risk from future quantum-enabled decryption and prioritize protection for your most valuable information, before it's too late to act. 

Accelerate post-quantum readiness initiatives

Establish a complete inventory of your cryptographic assets and dependencies. Understand where vulnerable algorithms exist, then build a practical roadmap for the move to quantum-resilient security architectures.

Reduce cryptographic technical debt

Legacy applications often depend on aging encryption methods, embedded keys, and outdated certificate management. RQSA uncovers this hidden cryptographic debt and helps your team prioritize the fixes that reduce long-term risk.

Strengthen compliance and security governance

Get the visibility you need to support audits, security assessments, and evolving regulatory expectations, including DORA, PCI, and NIST guidance, around cryptographic resilience and post-quantum preparedness.

Why Rocket Quantum Safety Analyzer?

You can't remediate what you can't see, and cryptographic blind spots are exactly where quantum risk hides. RQSA provides the visibility, intelligence, and prioritization you need to understand cryptographic risk across the mainframe enterprise and prepare for the transition to post-quantum security with confidence. 

Discover cryptographic risk today. Prioritize post-quantum remediation for tomorrow.
