Hush Security Adds Runtime Certificate Intelligence with Post-Quantum Readiness Detection

Hush Security announced in a press release a new runtime certificate intelligence capability for its Secretless Access Management Platform. The feature continuously detects certificate usage during runtime, validates encryption strength, and assesses whether certificates meet post-quantum readiness standards.

The new module scans cloud, on-premises, and hybrid environments to identify certificates in use by workloads, services, and AI agents. It automatically detects expired, weak, or non-compliant certificates and can replace them with stronger, quantum-resistant alternatives without downtime or manual intervention.

By integrating certificate intelligence into its existing platform, Hush provides unified oversight for machine identities and certificates. The system supports compliance with frameworks such as NIST’s Post-Quantum Cryptography guidance and PCI DSS 4.0, helping organizations maintain secure and up-to-date cryptographic assets.

Hush Security, backed by Battery Ventures and YL Ventures, offers enterprises a free certificate health check to establish baseline security for machine identities.
