Federal Cryptographic Infrastructure Assessment
The Only Vendor-Neutral Discovery Platform for OMB M-23-02 Compliance
Map the algorithms embedded in your agency systems. Complete cryptographic inventory in 7 days. Your data, your choice on remediation.
CISA PQC Product List Aligned • CDM-Native Integration • Algorithm Selection Guidance • Staff Training
ACDI
Automated Cryptographic Discovery & Inventory
The only vendor-neutral cryptographic discovery platform for federal agencies
The Problem
Most cryptographic discovery vendors offer "free" assessments—then lock you into expensive, proprietary remediation contracts. You lose negotiating power. You overpay. You're stuck with a single vendor.
Our Solution
ACDI discovers cryptography for everyone. We don't sell remediation. Your discovery data belongs to you. Run competitive procurement. Agencies using our approach save 30-40% on remediation costs.
Core Capabilities
Cryptographic Bill of Materials
Complete inventory of every cryptographic implementation—algorithms, key lengths, certificates, libraries, dependencies.
CDM-Native Integration
Direct feeds to CISA dashboards. Automated CyberScope reporting for OMB M-23-02 compliance.
Algorithm Risk Scoring
Every asset classified by quantum risk level. CRQC-vulnerable vs. quantum-resistant status.
Continuous Monitoring
Daily automated scans detect cryptographic drift. Alert on deprecated algorithms.
Vendor-Neutral By Design
ACDI reports provide vulnerability data only—no vendor recommendations
Any CISA-approved remediation vendor can integrate with ACDI data
Use discovery data to run competitive RFPs for remediation
We accept no referral fees or revenue sharing with remediation vendors
Your Data. Your Agency. Your Control.
Federal leadership changes. Your cryptographic inventory shouldn't be held hostage to political transitions or vendor dependencies.
Open Format Export
Export your complete cryptographic inventory anytime in JSON, CSV, and CBOM formats. No proprietary lock-in.
Leadership Independent
Platform operates regardless of agency leadership changes. Your compliance investment survives administration transitions.
Zero Political Dependencies
No dependency on any single agency's internal politics. Your discovery data belongs to your agency—not to appointees.
Portable Compliance
Take your ACDI data to any CISA-approved remediation vendor. Switch vendors without losing your cryptographic inventory.
Federal agencies face enough uncertainty. Your cryptographic discovery platform shouldn't add to it.
