A first step of many cryptography projects - preparation for Cloud migration, crypto agility, or improving application security, is to map out the cryptography actually in use in an application. A naive approach would be to just review the source code and search for cryptographic calls. However, this is both time-consuming and error-prone...

Computers that exploit quantum mechanical properties offer the promise of (supposedly) unbreakable cryptography and other exciting applications, but they will also cause a huge, immediate problem: the day a large, practical quantum computer is developed, all existing widely-used asymmetric cryptography will be broken.
