Modernize Legacy Key Management 
Without Operational Disruptions

The 2026 National Defense Strategy (NDS) mandate and the DoW’s Quantum and Battlefield Information Dominance (Q-BID) Critical Technology cannot be addressed by legacy key management infrastructure.
This whitepaper offers a roadmap to building compliant, next-generation 
infrastructure that meets all DoW requirements:

NDS & Q-BID Compliant Key Management for Defense Operations

Meet NDS 2026 and Q-BID Requirements with Qanapi DKMS

The 2026 National Defense Strategy and DoD's Q-BID Critical Technology Area mandate quantum-resistant, data-centric security for contested environments. Legacy key management infrastructure cannot meet these requirements. This white paper details how Qanapi's Decentralized Key Management Service (DKMS) provides the only API-driven, zero-trust solution that fully addresses NDS distribution mandates and Q-BID information dominance objectives—delivering quantum-resistant encryption and assured communications where they matter most.
Net-Centric-Distribution

Net-Centric Distribution

Deploy cryptographic keys across distributed forces in seconds through API-driven architecture—eliminating physical HSM limitations and enabling real-time key distribution to tactical edge units.

Contested-Environment-Operations

Contested Environment Operations

Maintain information superiority when networks are degraded or denied. DKMS uses Verifiable Concealed Shares (VCS) to ensure cryptographic operations continue in disconnected, intermittent, and limited-bandwidth conditions.

Quantum-Resistant-&-Zero-Trust

Quantum-Resistant & Zero Trust

Meet 2026 NDS data-centric security mandates and Q-BID quantum resistance requirements with crypto-agile architecture. Protect data as a strategic asset with post-quantum algorithms and payload-level Zero Trust controls.
