H33 offers free post-quantum migration to first 1,000 companies

By AI, Created 4:40 AM UTC, May 26, 2026, /AGP/ – H33 said Tuesday it will provide free post-quantum cryptographic conversion to the first 1,000 companies that request it, with CEO Eric Beans working directly with each organization. The offer targets firms facing a 2030 migration deadline and aims to cut the cost and complexity of moving to NIST-standardized post-quantum algorithms.

Why it matters: - H33 is trying to remove the two biggest barriers to post-quantum migration: cost and operational complexity. - The company framed the offer as a response to a looming security risk, with encrypted data collected today potentially exposed later in a harvest-now-decrypt-later attack. - CNSA 2.0 sets 2030 as the hard deadline for post-quantum migration across national security systems, and many enterprises have not started.

What happened: - H33, Inc. announced it will provide free post-quantum cryptographic conversion for the first 1,000 companies that request it. - CEO Eric Beans will work personally with each participating organization during the transition. - The program is limited to 50 onboardings per week. - No purchase is required. - No commitment is required beyond the conversion itself.

The details: - The free conversion includes a full cryptographic inventory of the environment. - H33 will build an algorithm-by-algorithm migration plan. - The migration uses hybrid mode, with classical and post-quantum systems running in parallel, to avoid downtime. - The conversion replaces RSA and ECDH key exchange with ML-KEM. - The conversion replaces RSA and ECDSA signatures with ML-DSA. - SLH-DSA is included as a hash-based backup family. - The program includes KAT validation against NIST test vectors. - Certificate migration is part of the package. - Rollback safety is included at every stage. - H33 will provide production verification that the migration is complete and correct. - H33 says the package also covers work that typically includes cryptographic inventory, HSM upgrades, key management migration, phased rollout, multi-year program management, and validation. - The company said that the market often prices this work at $10 million to $50 million for large enterprises, and Fortune 500 companies with legacy PKI, IoT endpoints, and regulated infrastructure can exceed $100 million. - The company said the offer is designed for organizations with active technical teams that can implement infrastructure changes. - Participating organizations must provide a technical point of contact, terminal access or infrastructure admin, an existing production environment, ability to deploy and test changes, a dedicated implementation owner, and weekly implementation availability. - Priority will go to financial services, healthcare, AI infrastructure, government-adjacent, and high-compliance organizations. - H33 said there are no limits on organizational size. - Interested organizations can apply at schedule a demo or email eb@h33.ai.

Between the lines: - H33 is positioning the offer as a proof point for its production infrastructure, not as a traditional consulting engagement. - The company says it already operates post-quantum migration infrastructure at scale, including five proprietary FHE engines, three post-quantum signature families, and deterministic verification. - H33 says its AWS Graviton4 infrastructure can support migration workflows at internet-scale throughput, with 2.29 million attested sessions per second. - That message is meant to counter the industry view that post-quantum migration requires expensive manual integration and infrastructure replacement. - The company is also signaling that the conversion process is highly automated and does not require large consulting teams.

What’s next: - The first 1,000 companies that request the service will be accepted on a first-come basis. - H33 said it will onboard up to 50 organizations per week. - Participating companies will work directly with Eric Beans and the H33 infrastructure team throughout implementation. - H33 did not give a public end date for the offer.

The bottom line: - H33 is betting that free, standardized migration can speed post-quantum adoption faster than the consulting-heavy model now used by most enterprises.
