See Your Cryptography. Fix What Matters. Be Post-Quantum Ready.
AI-assisted discovery of legacy and weak cryptography across code, cloud, devices, and PKI—plus a prioritized remediation roadmap and a practical post-quantum plan. US-focused delivery with European coverage (GDPR/NIS2). Recent work in Automotive and Smart Meters, with support for broader IoT (industrial, medical, buildings, retail, logistics).
We sign a mutual NDA before any document exchange. Office hours: Mon–Fri 09:00–18:00 UK (01:00–10:00 PT). Response SLA: within 1 business day.
Why Now
Quantum-capable attacks will break today’s RSA/ECDSA/ECDH at scale. Many teams don’t know where those algorithms live (source, containers, PKI, ECUs, meters). SafeCipher turns uncertainty into a concrete map and a plan—fast.
What You Get
- CBOM: algorithms, key sizes, cipher suites, libraries, cert profiles, trust anchors, KMS/HSM usage.
- Priority plan: fix the highest risk with the least disruption.
- Remediation roadmap: code/config/PKI changes with owners & milestones.
- Evidence pack: audit-ready artifacts for security & compliance.
How It Works
1) Discovery & Data Collection
Inventory crypto across repos, CI/CD, containers, services, certificates (AIA/OCSP/CRL), device images, and endpoints.
2) AI-Assisted Identification
Rules + CodeQL program analysis + ML patterns to catch vulnerable and look-alike crypto (incl. cert EKU/KU/lifetimes).
3) Risk Scoring
Impact vs. effort: drop-in library swaps vs. refactors; server-first then clients.
4) Action Plan
Upgrades (e.g., RSA/ECDSA → hybrid PQ), profile changes, rotation plans, OTA/boot hardening, and crypto-agility guards.

Automotive OEM Track
- ECU/TCU discovery: TLS suites, cert profiles, key storage, boot-chain integrity.
- PKI refresh: single trust anchor; per-realm CAs (Manufacturing/SKI, Telematics mTLS, Mesh/Workload, Code-Signing).
- Crypto-agility: A/B boot, anti-rollback, spare trust-anchors & cert slots (room for hybrid PQ).
- Lifecycle: short-lived TLS, issuer-pinned clients, gateway OCSP stapling & CRL mirrors.
Smart Meter / AMI Track
- Meter identity: keys in SE/HSM; MIC profiles (no PII in certs); attestation-based enrollment.
- Protocols: TLS 1.3 mTLS for HES/MDMS, DLMS/COSEM suites; gateway revocation caching.
- Compliance: NISTIR 7628, NERC CIP, ANSI C12.x, DLMS UA; GDPR/NIS2 in Europe.
- Crypto-agility: reserved slots/headroom; staged hybrid PQ rollout; gateway assist for constrained meters.
Beyond Auto & Smart Meters (Broader IoT)
While our current case studies center on Automotive and Smart Metering, the same discovery and PKI refresh approach applies across Industrial IoT, Medical/Healthcare IoT, Smart Buildings, Retail/Payments, and Logistics. We adapt certificate profiles, attestations, and rollout strategy to each domain’s constraints and regulations.
FAQs
Do you require materials up front?
No. We begin with a short call to align goals. We’ll sign a mutual NDA before any document exchange, and we only request what’s necessary for scope.
US-first, Europe-ready?
Yes—US automotive & utilities focus, with European coverage (GDPR, NIS2, ENISA; UNECE R155/156 and ISO/SAE 21434 are global).
On-prem?
On-prem or VPC-isolated deployments are supported. Your data stays under your control.
Ready to Take the Next Step?
Let’s start with a 30-minute introductory call to outline objectives and agree the NDA path. After NDA, we’ll propose a light-touch scoping session and a clear, not-to-exceed estimate for the initial discovery.
No document sharing without NDA. We lead with trust, then move at your pace.
