Acquisition of Leading Cryptographic Discovery Solutions Enhance Keyfactor’s Ability to Identify, Prioritize, and Remediate Cryptographic Risks
Keyfactor, a pioneer in digital trust solutions for modern enterprises, has revealed its acquisition of InfoSec Global, a leader in cryptographic posture management, and CipherInsights, an advanced cryptographic discovery tool developed by Quantum Xchange. These strategic moves position Keyfactor as the dominant force in digital trust and quantum-readiness, merging cutting-edge cryptographic discovery with automated certificate lifecycle management and quantum-ready Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) and signing solutions.
“A Major Leap Forward in Securing Digital Trust”
“These acquisitions mark a major leap forward in securing digital trust,” said Jordan Rackie, CEO of Keyfactor. “We’re bringing together the best of both worlds — the most advanced cryptographic discovery capabilities for assets in both rest and motion, powerful automation for remediation, and scalable solutions for quantum transitions and certificate issuance. Our integrated solutions provide a seamless path for organizations to address today’s cryptographic risks while preparing for the quantum threats of tomorrow. At Keyfactor, we’ve defined the future of digital trust by empowering organizations not only to manage certificates but also to manage the underlying cryptography.”
Cryptography underpins the security of digital interactions across devices, applications, and systems. However, many organizations still struggle with a lack of visibility into their cryptographic assets—where they reside, who manages them, and how they’re secured. This gap leaves organizations exposed to breaches, outages, and compliance failures. With quantum-safe cryptography on the horizon, organizations now face the added challenge of preparing for the next era of secure infrastructure. Keyfactor’s new acquisitions address these pressing needs by offering unparalleled visibility into cryptographic risks.
Innovative Solutions for Cryptographic Discovery, Risk Management, and Quantum-Safe Readiness
With InfoSec Global and CipherInsights joining the Keyfactor portfolio, the company’s solutions are now enhanced with advanced discovery, real-time monitoring, and comprehensive risk management tools. These improvements enable organizations to uncover hidden cryptographic assets, assess and monitor encryption health across their networks, and ensure a swift transition to quantum-safe cryptographic protocols—all within a single unified platform.

These additions provide organizations with essential tools for discovering vulnerabilities, modernizing cryptographic infrastructure, and maintaining long-term agility:
-
AgileSec Analytics: This powerful tool enables the deep discovery of cryptographic assets across various environments, including devices, source code, binaries, file systems, applications, and cloud workloads. It helps identify hidden cryptographic objects and prioritize the risks associated with outdated or vulnerable algorithms, in alignment with regulatory standards.
-
AgileSec Agility: This advanced solution allows businesses to centrally manage and update cryptographic assets within applications without altering source code. It supports the integration of current, post-quantum, and future cryptographic standards across diverse IT landscapes.
-
CipherInsights: A lightweight network sensor that passively monitors real-time traffic to detect cryptographic risks, such as weak protocols, self-signed certificates, and unencrypted data transmissions. Built-in compliance templates for standards like PCI-DSS and HIPAA simplify reporting and regulatory adherence.
Customer Benefits: Achieving Quantum-Safe Readiness Through Enhanced Visibility and Automation
With growing concerns over cryptographic complexity and emerging quantum threats, organizations are increasingly relying on integrated, comprehensive solutions. Keyfactor’s enhanced capabilities give customers the tools they need to take control of their cryptographic infrastructure. These benefits include:
-
360-Degree Visibility: Enhanced discovery and inventory management provide full visibility into cryptographic keys, algorithms, crypto-libraries, and protocols in use across the organization, enabling continuous monitoring and risk assessment of all cryptographic assets.
-
Actionable Intelligence: Advanced cryptographic risk assessments deliver insights into vulnerabilities, helping security and compliance teams identify insecure keys, compromised certificates, and unencrypted traffic, allowing for proactive management of risks.
-
Automated Remediation: Integrated with Keyfactor Command, the solution provides automated remediation by migrating certificates to quantum-safe standards quickly. It also offers tools for generating audit reports for compliance frameworks, such as PCI-DSS, HIPAA, GDPR, and Zero-Trust models.
A Collaborative Vision for the Future of Digital Trust
“The merger of InfoSec Global with Keyfactor makes it possible for us to realize our vision of offering an end-to-end cryptographic posture management platform,” said Nagy Moustafa, CEO and co-founder of InfoSec Global. “Enterprises face dual challenges: preparing for post-quantum cryptography while meeting evolving compliance standards. Our combined strengths provide the agility and visibility required to manage cryptographic assets through these transitions. We are excited to partner with the Keyfactor team to deliver this unified approach.”
This strategic acquisition comes amid a surge in cybersecurity mergers and acquisitions, particularly within the cryptography and PKI sectors, as organizations increasingly seek comprehensive, integrated solutions to tackle the evolving challenges of digital trust. With an expected acceleration of these trends in 2025, businesses are prioritizing partners that provide a full range of cryptographic and security capabilities.
