The Quantum Computing - Quick Start Toolkit for Organizations
Download Your Quantum Readiness Kit
This free downloadable toolkit is a companion to my new book The Quantum Computing Cybersecurity Guide, and is designed to help you take the next step—from learning about quantum threats to actually preparing for them.
You’ve explored the risks, understood the algorithms, and seen what’s coming. Now it’s time to act.
Whether you work in a Fortune 500 company, a government agency, a university, or a tech startup, this toolkit will help you prioritize, organize, and operationalize your quantum security response.
What’s Inside the Toolkit?
Sheet 1: Quantum Readiness Maturity Checklist
Before you plan your migration, assess where your organization stands.
This self-assessment covers cryptographic asset discovery, vendor readiness, crypto-agility, executive support, and PQC planning. Just select “Yes” or “No” for each question, and your score is automatically calculated—with a legend to guide your next steps.
Sheet 2: Cryptographic Asset Inventory Template
You can’t protect what you haven’t documented.
This template helps you systematically map where and how cryptography is used across systems, apps, and infrastructure. Capture key algorithms, key lengths, data sensitivity, and crypto-agility—all in one place.
Sheet 3: Quantum Risk Assessment Register
Which assets are most at risk from quantum decryption?
Use this register to estimate the lifetime of your assets, the time needed to upgrade them, and compare that to the quantum threat horizon. If x + y > z
, that system is at risk—and the sheet tells you so automatically.
This helps you prioritize what needs immediate protection, and what can wait.
Sheet 4: PQC Vendor Assessment Checklist
Your vendors could become your weakest link—or your strongest ally.
This checklist helps you evaluate vendors based on their cryptographic practices, PQC roadmaps, hybrid TLS support, and migration planning. Auto-scoring makes it easy to flag vendors that need attention—and those already ahead of the curve.
Ready to Move from Theory to Practice?
This workbook isn't just a download—it’s your starter kit for quantum-resilient security.
It’s designed for CISOs, security architects, risk managers, and forward-looking IT teams who understand that waiting is not a strategy.
