The Hidden Risk in Encryption: Can You Prove Your Keys Are Random?

Jul 9, 2026

Virtual / Online

Fortanix Government Team at Carahsoft

The algorithm can be perfect — and the system can still fail.

  • Debian OpenSSL
  • Sony’s PlayStation 3 signing key
  • Android Bitcoin wallets drained using only public data

Each failure traced back to the same root cause: weak or predictable randomness beneath the encryption layer — not flaws in the cryptography itself.

For federal agencies operating under increasing scrutiny and evolving mandates, this raises a fundamental question:

If an auditor asked you to prove your encryption keys were generated from true, verifiable randomness — could you?

Join Denis Mandich, Founder & CTO of Qrypt and former U.S. intelligence community leader, alongside Pat Conte, CRO of Fortanix, for a 45-minute executive briefing on:

  • Why PQC still depends on strong, provable randomness — and inherits the same risks
  • How to generate, rotate and cryptographically attest to key integrity at scale
  • Practical approaches to aligning with CNSA 2.0, CMMC and emerging global compliance frameworks

Discover how Qrypt and Fortanix together enable agencies to move beyond theoretical security — toward provable, auditable cryptographic assurance across hybrid and mission-critical environments.
