Q-Day isn’t here yet, but the race has already started.
QIZ Security has completed a $1.7 million seed round, led by Evolution Equity Partners and Singtel Innov8. Founded in 2025, the company does one thing: turn “invisible crypto assets” inside enterprises into a manageable inventory.
Its approach is pretty clever—no agent-based access at all. It relies purely on API-driven automated scanning across the full chain to identify keys, certificates, encryption protocols, and weak algorithms scattered across different systems in one go. Then, based on this map, it helps institutions plan their migration path to post-quantum cryptography (PQC), while aligning with PQC compliance requirements from NIST, the EU, and more.
Why this direction is worth paying attention to:
· Most enterprises don’t even know how much RSA/ECC they’re using, let alone their migration priorities
· PQC migration is a 3–5 year engineering effort—the earlier you inventory, the cheaper it is
· Singtel Innov8’s involvement suggests telecom-grade infrastructure customers are already scheduling
Crypto agility will be one of the toughest tracks in infrastructure security over the next few years. Companies in this “security posture management” space are likely not going to be the only ones to break through.
