CREATE2 labs proposes the Crypto Agility Framework for Ethereum (CAFE), a crypto-agility framework that discovers, governs, and remediates cryptographic assets on Ethereum, ensuring compliance, resilience, and trust as quantum computing threatens current security foundations.
Shor's and Grover's algorithms threaten to break RSA and ECDSA, the cryptographic foundations protecting today's digital worldβfrom internet communications to blockchain networks.
Once you sign a transaction, your public key becomes visible on-chain and could be targeted for quantum attacks during transaction propagation and confirmation.
Previously exposed keys on the blockchain remain vulnerable. Quantum computers could retroactively derive private keys from public keys already recorded on-chain.
The transition to quantum-resistant cryptography (PQC) has become an urgent global priority. Organizations must act now to preserve the confidentiality, integrity, and authenticity of digital assets before Q-Day arrives.
CAFE is a comprehensive platform designed to discover, govern, and remediate cryptographic assets on Ethereum. It ensures compliance, resilience, and trust in the post-quantum and zero-knowledge era.
π CAFE infrastructure ready.
π Discovery Service Available Now: Start scanning wallets and TLS endpoints
today to identify quantum vulnerabilities.
π§ Crypto Policy Manager and Remediation are coming soon.
Operating at the intersection of technology and regulation, CAFE supports European frameworks such as MiCA (Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation) and DORA (Digital Operational Resilience Act), enabling regulated institutions to demonstrate cryptographic assurance and policy compliance.
Orchestrate and monitor the CAFE platform
Identify on-chain and network quantum exposures
Define and apply cryptographic governance policies
Securely sign and migrate wallets using PQC + ZK
Account Abstraction enables custom signature schemes and quantum-resistant policies without changing contract addresses.
Falcon and other NIST-approved PQC algorithms provide quantum-resistant security for Ethereum wallets.
ZK technology obfuscates public keys and enables verifiable policy enforcement without exposing sensitive data.
JWT and OAuth with PQC, ensuring quantum-resistant authentication and authorization for secure access control.
Multi-factor authentication combining ECDSA with PQC keys ensures backward compatibility during transition.
Aligns with NSM-10/CNSA 2.0 (US), DORA/MiCA (EU), and PQFIF frameworks for global financial infrastructure.
