Training & Certification

A self-paced curriculum that takes you from the basics of post-quantum cryptography through running a production CA. Every module links to a real spec, a real endpoint, or a real page on this site.

Courses

Foundations

Post-Quantum Cryptography Fundamentals

~3 hours self-paced

Understand why classical public-key cryptography is at risk, what NIST standardised in 2024, and how the new algorithms behave in practice.

Modules

Practitioner

Certificate Lifecycle on QuantumSecure

~4 hours self-paced

Order, validate, deploy, renew, and revoke quantum-safe X.509 certificates in production using the portal and the REST API.

Modules

Advanced

Hybrid X.509 and the alt-signature extensions

~5 hours self-paced

How draft-ietf-lamps-x509-alt embeds a parallel PQC signature inside a classical certificate so existing TLS stacks keep working.
