Remediation Recommendations

๐Ÿšจ Critical: Deploy Qveil Immediately

You have endpoints using RSA or EC cryptography that are vulnerable to quantum attacks today via harvest-now-decrypt-later (HNDL) strategies. Deploy Qveil (quantum-safe TLS wrapper) in front of these services to establish ML-KEM-1024 (preferred) or ML-KEM-768 (legacy-compatible) hybrid key exchange without touching application code.

โš ๏ธ SSH: Upgrade Host Key Algorithms

SSH servers using ssh-rsa or ECDSA host keys should be migrated to Ed25519 as an immediate step, and to ML-DSA-87 (preferred) or ML-DSA-65 (legacy-compatible) via Qpki for full post-quantum protection. Also audit sshd_config to disable deprecated algorithms.

๐Ÿ“‹ Compliance: Address Control Gaps

The following controls have failing endpoints: CNSA-2.0-KE, ETSI-103744, FIPS-203, FIPS-204. Remediate by deploying Qveil for TLS endpoints and upgrading SSH configurations. After remediation, re-run Qdiscover to confirm compliance posture.

Primum & Terminus Product Remediation Path
  • Qveil โ€” Drop-in quantum-safe TLS wrapper for any HTTPS service (ML-KEM-1024 preferred, ML-KEM-768 legacy-compatible)
  • Qpki โ€” Post-quantum PKI: replace RSA/ECC certificates with ML-DSA-87 (preferred) or ML-DSA-65 (legacy-compatible)
  • Qled โ€” Immutable quantum-safe audit ledger for compliance evidence

PQC Framework Compliance Mapping

Control Framework Title Status Notes
FIPS-203 NIST FIPS 203 ML-KEM โ€” Post-Quantum Key Encapsulation FAIL 1 failing endpoint(s)
FIPS-204 NIST FIPS 204 ML-DSA โ€” Post-Quantum Digital Signatures FAIL 1 failing endpoint(s)
CNSA-2.0-KE NSA CNSA 2.0 Key Establishment โ€” ML-KEM Required FAIL 1 failing endpoint(s)
CNSA-2.0-SIG NSA CNSA 2.0 Digital Signatures โ€” ML-DSA Required FAIL 0 failing endpoint(s)
ETSI-103744 ETSI TS 103 744 Quantum-Safe Hybrid Key Exchange FAIL 1 failing endpoint(s)

Status reflects whether any scanned endpoint satisfies each post-quantum standard. PASS = all reachable endpoints use PQC-approved algorithms. FAIL = at least one endpoint uses classical cryptography. N/A = standard not applicable to scanned endpoint types.
