About Encryptorium

What Encryptorium is

Encryptorium is an independent applied cryptography research platform. We produce original research, technical analysis, and open resources focused on post-quantum cryptography and post-quantum zero-knowledge proof systems. Our work is grounded in established PQC standards and guidance: NIST, IETF post-quantum and hybrid TLS standardization, NCSC, and CycloneDX CBOM.

We are not a cybersecurity vendor and we do not sell products. Encryptorium exists to publish research, track standards, and provide practitioners with the analysis they need for the quantum transition. Our focus is on PQC migration as an architectural and lifecycle problem, not just an algorithm swap. We also offer advisory services for organizations planning that work.

Who

Encryptorium is founded and run by Andreas Renz (@0xLoopTheory). His current work includes a paper on the post-quantum security of zero-knowledge proof systems, in preparation for IACR ePrint.

What we cover

• PQC migration analysis: Standards tracking, adoption measurement, cryptographic inventory methods, and migration guidance aligned to NIST FIPS 203/204/205, NCSC's 2028/2031/2035 migration milestones, and CycloneDX CBOM.
• Post-quantum ZK: Security analysis of deployed zero-knowledge proof systems under quantum threat models. See our research.
• Standards tracking: NIST, NCSC UK, ETSI, and IETF standardization progress. See the PQC timeline.
• Open resources: Free assessment methodology, curated reference library, and open-source tooling.
