Our take
What our shortlists say about each one.
- SandboxAQ AQtive Guard
Best for: Large companies wanting a full cryptography inventory
AQtive Guard leads with discovery, which is where any post-quantum move has to start, because you cannot replace what you have not found. It suits mid-market and enterprise companies that must show progress against CNSA 2.0 and NIST mandates, and it plugs into ServiceNow, GitHub, GitLab and AWS. Ask how much of the replacement work it carries out and how much it plans for your teams, so you know what effort is left.

- Venari Adaptive Cryptographic Intelligence Platform
Best for: Companies that must map dependencies and prove compliance
Venari is on the list because it maps how applications and services depend on each other, which helps you avoid a failure that spreads when one algorithm changes. It fits regulated mid-market and enterprise companies that must show PCI, GDPR or DORA checks and keep the CMDB in sync. Ask who makes the actual change, because guided remediation gives your teams steps rather than doing the work for them.
