Harvest Now, Decrypt Later: Which Credentials to Migrate First to Post-Quantum Cryptography

Harvest now, decrypt later (HNDL) is an active cyberespionage strategy: adversaries capture today's RSA- or ECC-encrypted traffic to decrypt it once quantum computers mature, estimated between 2030 and 2035 by NIST. The credentials an SME must migrate first are those with the longest lifespan and highest privilege: admin SSH keys, private CA certificates, IPsec VPN configurations, and long-lived API tokens.

Want to know if your company has real exposure to the harvest now decrypt later risk? Blurtek delivers a cryptographic inventory assessment and PQC migration prioritization in under two weeks.
