Problem

As quantum computing threats become reality, KISA and NIST have published Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) transition guidelines, but security officers at Korean SMEs (10-50 employees) in IT struggle to even identify where RSA/ECC algorithms are used in their own systems. External security consulting costs $7,500-22,500 per engagement, making it prohibitive for SMEs.

Solution

Users select their tech stack (web server, DB, API, certificates, etc.) and the service automatically maps cryptographic algorithm usage points, then provides a checklist of PQC transition priorities, difficulty levels, and estimated costs. It outputs a KISA PQC guideline compliance score and a step-by-step transition roadmap as a PDF Report.

Target: CTOs or security officers at IT services/fintech companies with 10-50 employees
Revenue Model: Premium model: Free basic assessment; detailed roadmap + PDF Report at $29 per report; monthly Pro Plan at $59/month (unlimited assessments + quarterly update alerts)
Ecosystem Role: Regulation
MVP Estimate: 2_weeks
