Abstract: The present invention allows implementing an adaptive quantum-resistant cryptographic security framework, which protects information in enterprise cloud systems and hybrid networks comprising private and external platforms. The framework constantly analyzes the state of the system, including the data protection level, network performance, available resources, and possible threats. An adaptive decision-making module constantly tracks changes in the organization's security posture, comparing them with a dynamic security model that takes into account the risk reduction and resource expenditure and selects specific cryptographic algorithms that implement quantum-resistant cryptography. The framework's cryptographic processing module is designed to host several algorithm classes that solve the problem of quantum resistance using different approaches, such as lattice-based cryptography, multivariate public-key cryptography, and hash-based digital signatures. The algorithm classes are organized in a way that allows switching between them at the application protocol level with a uniform interface. In addition, the framework includes a translation layer that masks these differences in a hybrid communication environment, enabling the implementation of cryptographic processing at different levels: algorithmic and key encapsulation. The framework also includes a key coordination module, which allows for parallel use of algorithms, assigning keys to different data categories, and ensuring authorized data access. This module generates keys within the framework's trusted environment, distributing and storing them in cryptographically secure places, and determining their rotation periods. All operations are performed with extended cryptographic control, which allows for detecting and responding to any violations or failures, switching to alternative algorithms, and maintaining auditability, thereby establishing protected communication links. The framework's operation principles are optimized for performance through priority allocation of cryptographic processing resources to acceleration devices if available and configuring algorithms' lighter elements for low-security data. The framework ensures the possibility of gradual introduction into use with the ability to coexist with traditional cryptography solutions, protecting data with quantum-resistant algorithms while conventional cryptographic standards are being transitioned. The organization's protection policy can be configured using high-level security directives, which the decision-making module transforms into a set of specific algorithms and their parameters. By implementing a closed-loop system that combines the analysis of protection and performance characteristics, decision-making, quantum- resistant cryptographic processing of information in several modes, key coordination, and automated protection recovery, the described framework allows for protecting information with changing requirements in the enterprise cloud and hybrid networks. This makes it possible to ensure the long-term protection of critical data from potential cyberattacks with the possibility of using established and emerging quantum technologies and maintaining the required level of network performance for mission-critical data across heterogeneous platforms.
