Quick Start: Experience Key Differentiators
Estimated time: 10 minutes What you'll test: Composite keys, migration, performance Requirements: Free trial signup (no credit card)
Test 1: Composite Hybrid Keys (3 minutes)
# Generate composite key (ONLY AnkaSecure has this!)
curl -X POST https://api.ankatech.co/keys/composite \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
-d '{
"classicalAlgorithm": "RSA_4096",
"pqcAlgorithm": "ML_KEM_1024",
"mode": "HYBRID_KEM_COMBINE"
}'
✅ Result: Key protected by RSA AND ML-KEM (1000× more secure than OR-decrypt)
Competitive check: - AWS KMS: ❌ No composite keys - Vault: ❌ No composite keys - Azure: ❌ No composite keys - AnkaSecure: ✅ ONLY platform with AND-decrypt hybrid
Test 2: Zero-Code Migration (3 minutes)
# Rotate algorithm WITHOUT changing keyId
curl -X PATCH https://api.ankatech.co/keys/my-key/rotate \
-d '{"targetAlgorithm":"ML_KEM_1024"}'
✅ Result: Applications continue working (same keyId, new algorithm!)
Cost savings: $840K avoided (vs rewriting 200 applications)
Test 3: Performance (4 minutes)
# Benchmark ML-KEM encryption
time for i in {1..100}; do
curl -X POST https://api.ankatech.co/encrypt \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
-d '{"algorithm":"ML_KEM_1024","plaintext":"test"}'
done
✅ Result: ~3ms per encryption (16× faster than AWS KMS!)

The AnkaSecure Advantage: 5 Unique Differentiators
1. Composite Hybrid Keys (ONLY Platform)
What it is: Combine classical + PQC in ONE key (RSA + ML-KEM)
Why it matters: - ✅ 1000× more secure than OR-decrypt (both algorithms must break) - ✅ NIST SP 800-227 compliant (federal procurement ready) - ✅ Instant rollback if PQC vulnerability found (fallback to RSA) - ✅ Defense-in-depth (hedge against unknown vulnerabilities)
No competitor has this: - AWS KMS: ❌ No composite keys - Vault: ❌ No composite keys - Azure: ❌ No composite keys - Google KMS: ❌ No composite keys
Mathematical proof:
OR-decrypt: P(compromise) = 5.1% (if EITHER algorithm broken)
AND-decrypt: P(compromise) = 0.005% (BOTH must break)
Security improvement: 5.1% ÷ 0.005% = 1020× more secure
2. Zero-Code Migration ($840K Savings)
What it is: Change algorithms via configuration (no application changes)
Why it matters: - ✅ $840K saved for 200-app enterprise (vs traditional rewrite) - ✅ Same-day deployment (vs 6-12 months for code changes) - ✅ Zero risk (no code changes = no bugs introduced) - ✅ Consistent (all 200 apps use same algorithm instantly)
Real customer story:
"We migrated 500 applications from RSA to ML-KEM with ZERO code changes. Cost: $30. Traditional approach estimate: $2.1M. ROI: unprecedented." — CISO, Fortune 500 Financial Services
Traditional approach:
AnkaSecure approach:
3. Federal Compliance (100% Ready)
What it is: NIST, GSA, FIPS, CNSA 2.0 compliance out-of-the-box
Why it matters: - ✅ Federal procurement ready (GSA Schedule 70 eligible) - ✅ 2030 NSA deadline (4 years ahead of deadline) - ✅ RFP checkboxes (all federal requirements met) - ✅ Competitive advantage (most vendors not compliant)
Compliance scorecard: | Standard | AnkaSecure | AWS KMS | Vault | Azure | |----------|-----------|---------|-------|-------| | NIST FIPS 203 | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ | | GSA PQC | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ | | FIPS 140-2 | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | | CNSA 2.0 | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ |
AnkaSecure wins: Only vendor with complete PQC compliance
4. Deployment Flexibility (SaaS + On-Prem + Hybrid)
What it is: Deploy anywhere (cloud, on-premise, air-gapped)
Why it matters: - ✅ No vendor lock-in (portable across clouds) - ✅ Data sovereignty (deploy in YOUR data center) - ✅ Air-gapped support (classified networks) - ✅ Cost optimization (on-prem cheaper for high volume)
Deployment comparison: | Platform | SaaS | On-Premise | Air-Gapped | Multi-Cloud | |----------|------|------------|------------|-------------| | AnkaSecure | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | | AWS KMS | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ | | Vault | ⚠️ HCP (limited) | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | | Azure | ✅ | ⚠️ Managed HSM | ❌ | ❌ |
AnkaSecure wins: Most deployment options (tied with Vault)
But AnkaSecure adds: PQC + multi-tenancy (Vault lacks)
5. Zero Plaintext Exposure (Patented Architecture)
What it is: Re-encrypt data without exposing plaintext
Why it matters: - ✅ Security: Plaintext never on client or network - ✅ Compliance: Meets strict data handling requirements - ✅ Performance: Server-side = faster (no client round-trip) - ✅ Streaming: 2 MB memory for ANY file size (tested 100 GB)
Traditional re-encryption:
Decrypt on client → Plaintext exposed ❌
Send plaintext to server → Network exposure ❌
Server encrypts → Security risk throughout
AnkaSecure re-encryption:
Send ciphertext to server → No exposure ✅
Server transforms internally → Plaintext secured ✅
Receive new ciphertext → Zero exposure ✅
No competitor has this: AWS, Vault, Azure all require client-side decrypt
Test zero-plaintext re-encryption

The 3-Minute Elevator Pitch
Problem: The Quantum Threat Timeline
2026 (Today): Adversaries capture your encrypted data 2030-2035: Quantum computers available Result: Your confidential data from 2026 compromised in 2035
If your data must stay secret > 10 years, you need PQC NOW
Solution: AnkaSecure's Unique Approach
3 Pillars:
- Crypto-Agility: Change algorithms in 5 minutes (not 6 months)
- Cryptographic Sovereignty: Full control (SaaS or on-premise)
- Frictionless Modernization: Add PQC without redesign
Result: Quantum-resistant in days (not years), at $30 cost (not $840K)
Proof: 3 Unique Capabilities
- Composite Keys: AND-decrypt (1000× more secure) - NO competitor has
- Zero-Code Migration: $840K savings proven - NO competitor matches
- Federal Compliance: NIST + GSA + CNSA ready - NO competitor complete
Why Not Competitors?
Why Not AWS KMS?
Limitations: - ❌ No post-quantum cryptography (RSA/AES only) - ❌ AWS-only (cannot deploy on-premise or multi-cloud) - ❌ Vendor lock-in (keys cannot export) - ❌ Expensive at scale ($30K/month for 10M ops)
When AWS KMS fits: Low-volume (<100K ops/mo), AWS-native apps, no PQC needs
AnkaSecure advantage: PQC + multi-cloud + cost-effective
Why Not HashiCorp Vault?
Limitations: - ❌ No post-quantum cryptography (roadmap unknown) - ❌ No multi-tenancy (open source), complex setup (Enterprise) - ❌ Secrets management focus (not optimized for data encryption) - ❌ Self-hosted only (HCP Vault has limited features)
When Vault fits: Infrastructure secrets (passwords, API keys), single-tenant, open-source preference
AnkaSecure advantage: PQC + native multi-tenancy + managed SaaS
Complementary: Use BOTH (Vault for secrets, AnkaSecure for data)
Why Not Azure Key Vault?
Limitations: - ❌ No post-quantum cryptography (RSA/EC only) - ❌ Azure-only (cannot deploy truly on-premise) - ❌ Vendor lock-in (Managed HSM keys cannot export) - ❌ Max 256 KB payload (vs AnkaSecure 100 GB streaming)
When Azure fits: Low-volume (<500K ops/mo), Azure-native apps, no multi-cloud needs
AnkaSecure advantage: PQC + multi-cloud + large file support
