The Lifecycle
Five stages, one platform
KavachQ implements the full quantum-safe lifecycle defined in the DST Task Force report — discover, score, plan, migrate, prove.
01
Crypto discovery (BOMs)
Automated SBOM and CBOM generation across applications and infrastructure. Inventory intake from certificate stores and CBOM uploads (CycloneDX 1.6).
02
Quantum risk analysis
HNDL exposure flagging and Mosca-inequality prioritisation against the DST Persona framework (Urgent / Regular / Vendor). Findings are cited against verbatim clauses from the mandates for Indian CII and BFSI — DST/NQM, RBI, SEBI CSCRF, CERT-In — with a grounded “Ask the Regulation” view that answers only from that corpus.
03
Migration plan
Phased roadmap aligned to the DST milestones (CII 2027/28/29 · Enterprise 2028/30/33), broken down by system, owner, dependency, and supplier. A crypto dependency graph computes blast radius — which downstream systems break when an algorithm falls — so sequencing follows real impact.
04
Hybrid PQC roll-out
Phased migration workspace to plan and track the hybrid (classical + PQC) roll-out across TLS, PKI, and code-signing chains. Recommended replacements are named where relevant — ML-KEM-768 (FIPS 203) for key establishment, ML-DSA-65 (FIPS 204) for signatures.
05
Assurance & reporting
Reporting aligned to the DST L1–L4 assurance framework, with board-ready dashboards and regulator-facing exports. Every CBOM and report is digitally signed (ML-DSA-65, FIPS 204) and independently verifiable — tamper-evident attestation a regulator can check.
