  • Score range 20–100 across four exposure tiers
How this tool works

The Quantum Exposure Snapshot scores your organisation across seven factors that determine quantum cryptographic risk relevance. The score uses a weighted formula: sector and data profile together account for 60% of the result, reflecting that industry type and data characteristics are the strongest predictors of quantum risk urgency.

The tool does not audit your cryptographic infrastructure. It provides a directional triage result: accurate enough to tell you whether quantum risk is an immediate priority, a medium-term concern, or a longer-range planning item — and what the appropriate next step is.

Scoring formula: Score = (Sector×0.20 + Longevity×0.20 + Sensitivity×0.20 + Trust×0.15 + Regulatory×0.10 + Legacy×0.10 + Vendor×0.05) × 20

What industry does your organisation operate in?

Select the sector that best describes your primary business activity. Sector is the strongest single predictor of quantum cryptographic risk relevance.

Factor 1 of 6
Weight: 20%

How long does your most sensitive data need to stay confidential?

Think about your most important records: contracts, medical data, financial histories, intellectual property, personnel files. If someone captured encrypted copies of this data today, how long would it matter if they could eventually read it?

Factor 2 of 6
Weight: 20%

How sensitive is the data your organisation handles?

Consider the type and volume of sensitive data in your systems: personal records, financial data, health information, confidential contracts, intellectual property, national security material.

Factor 3 of 6
Weight: 15%

How much does your organisation rely on digital certificates, code signing, or device trust systems?

Certificate authorities issue digital certificates that prove identity online. Code signing confirms that software has not been tampered with. Device trust systems verify that hardware is genuine. If your organisation runs any of these — or if your products include them — select the appropriate level.

Factor 4 of 6
Weight: 10%

How heavily regulated is your organisation?

Some sectors face formal requirements to prepare for quantum cryptographic threats. Finance, critical infrastructure, government, healthcare, and defence face the earliest and most specific obligations.

How difficult would it be for your organisation to update its cryptographic systems?

Modern cloud systems can update cryptographic libraries in weeks. Legacy systems, embedded hardware, and bespoke industrial equipment may require physical replacement or multi-year upgrade programmes.

Factor 6 of 6
Weight: 5%

How dependent is your organisation on third-party vendors for its core cryptographic systems?

High dependency means your organisation cannot migrate to quantum-safe cryptography without your vendors making changes first: cloud providers, hardware security module vendors, software platforms, or industrial system suppliers.
