CNSA 2.0 post-quantum cryptography for classified and air-gapped systems.

Data that must remain classified for decades is already exposed to Harvest-Now-Decrypt-Later adversaries. Defense and intelligence operators need post-quantum cryptography that works in air-gapped, tactical and coalition environments — not just in the public cloud.

THE PROBLEM

Classified data has the longest confidentiality horizon

NSA CNSA 2.0 defines the post-quantum algorithms approved for national-security systems. Classified and sensitive-compartmented information must migrate on a fixed timeline, with full compliance by 2030 for most categories.

Air-gapped and tactical environments cannot rely on cloud-only cryptographic services. They need a control plane that can run on-premises, in disconnected enclaves and across coalition networks.

Legacy defense stacks often embed cryptographic primitives directly in mission software, making algorithm transitions slow, expensive and risky without orchestration.

  • NSA CNSA 2.0 — approved post-quantum suite for national-security systems
  • CNSSP-15 — national-security systems cryptography policy
  • NIST FIPS 203/204/205 — standardized post-quantum algorithms
  • Air-gapped, disconnected and coalition deployment requirements

HOW ANKASECURE© HELPS

ANKASecure© capabilities that matter in defense

Air-gapped and on-premises deployment — the control plane runs inside your enclave, not in a shared cloud.

CNSA 2.0 algorithm suite enforced by policy, with hybrid modes for coalition interoperability during transition.

Cryptographic inventory and migration planning tailored to mission systems and long-lived classified data stores.

Tamper-evident audit log for cryptographic operations — built for accreditation and red-team scrutiny.
