QIZ raises $17M to manage the post-quantum migration
QIZ Security’s seed round backs cryptographic discovery, posture management and migration planning as enterprises prepare for quantum-resistant standards.
The post-quantum transition is not simply a matter of installing a new encryption algorithm.
What happened
QIZ Security raised a $17M seed round.
The company builds a cryptographic-posture and post-quantum cryptography management platform designed to help organisations understand where cryptography is used across their systems and prepare for migration toward quantum-resistant standards.
Why it matters
Large enterprises often do not have a complete inventory of certificates, libraries, protocols and embedded systems that depend on existing cryptography.
That creates a major migration challenge before new standards can be deployed consistently.
QIZ is targeting the infrastructure layer around discovery, planning and governance rather than selling a single replacement algorithm.
The bigger picture
Quantum risk is creating a new cybersecurity category before large-scale quantum attacks exist.
Enterprises need visibility into cryptographic dependencies today if they want to migrate safely later. QIZ’s round reflects growing investment in that preparation layer.
