ClaimCheck Crypto
A compliance tool that lets security and procurement teams paste a vendor's cryptographic claim ('our data is protected by AES-256-GCM with authenticated key exchange') and get a plain-English verification request pack including the formal properties they should demand proof of.
Security analysts, GRC teams, and procurement officers who don't write proofs themselves but need to ask vendors the right questions
- Plain-English claim decoder that maps vendor marketing claims to specific cryptographic properties (confidentiality, integrity, forward secrecy, etc.)
- Auto-generated 'evidence request' template per claim, ready to send to vendor security teams
- Vendor tracker that flags which claims have been formally verified vs. hand-waved
- SOC 2 / ISO 27001 control mapping for each cryptographic property
As formal verification goes mainstream in crypto engineering, the people BUYING crypto products are 5 years behind the people building them — and they need a translation layer to ask the right questions.
Governments are actively codifying crypto-specific vendor questions — ASD/ACSC published 'Post-quantum questions to ask your vendors' in July 2026, and NIST/AWS are pushing formal verification of cryptographic software, validating that buyers need structured crypto-question frameworks.Post-quantum questions to ask your vendors — Cyber.gov.au (ASD/ACSC) ↗Formal Verification of Cryptographic Software at AWS — Current Practices and Future Trends ↗
General vendor security questionnaire market is crowded (Vanta, Drata, OneTrust, Secureframe, TrustCloud), but none specialize in translating a vendor's specific cryptographic claim into a tailored verification-request pack — closest work is ASD's static PDF question list, not an interactive claim-to-questions tool.Top Vendor Security Questionnaire Tools Compared (2026) — Secureflow ↗
Buyers do pay — Vanta/Drata run $15K–$22K/yr — but they buy the platform, not a niche crypto-translation add-on; standalone pricing for a single-purpose tool is unproven and most likely to be acquired as a feature inside an existing GRC suite.Vanta pricing 2026: real cost & alternatives — Wolfia ↗
Post-quantum transition timelines extend through the 2030s (CNSA 2.0), formal verification of crypto is explicitly trending at NIST/AWS, and cryptographic supply-chain risk is permanent — demand should grow, not fade.Post-quantum questions to ask your vendors — Cyber.gov.au ↗Formal Verification of Cryptographic Software at AWS — Current Practices and Future Trends ↗
Technically trivial to build: an LLM + curated knowledge base mapping cryptographic primitives (AES-256-GCM, X25519, Kyber, etc.) to the formal properties and proof artifacts that should be requested — a weekend MVP, with the real work being ongoing maintenance of the claim-to-question ontology.
