Question 8

Does Encipher Systems Receive Live Keys Or CUI?

Accepted Answer

No. Encipher Systems does not receive live keys, private key material, HSM exports, or unredacted CUI. PEM private-key armor, keystore files, and classification banners are refused. A refused file does not start a CLIN. Encipher Systems will delete an unredacted file unopened.

Question 9

What If The Crypto File Cannot Leave The Source?

Accepted Answer

Use the Encipher Evidence Pack. PQC Evidence Pack (On Your Box) binds each crypto row to a scan or test run and exports a hashed evidence pack. Encipher Systems does not receive the file. Support works from version, OS, error code, and a demo screenshot.

Question 10

What PQC Work Sits Under Professional Services?

Accepted Answer

PQC sits under the three existing pillars, not as a fourth practice. Cryptographic Assessment produces a CBOM. PQC Migration sequences Portable, Rewrite, and Blocked rows and integrates a partnered commercial product into identity, PKI, VPN, or signing paths already on the tenant. Quantum-Ready Cyber advises program leads and ISSOs. Encipher Systems does not build a custom NSS crypto module and does not claim quantum speedup on a customer workload.
