Unified AI & Quantum GRC Master Suite: 2026 Sovereign Shield Framework (Excel XLSX)
Excel (XLSX) + supplemental PDF
BENEFITS OF THIS EXCEL DOCUMENT
- Quantifies and visualizes "Harvest Now, Decrypt Later" (HNDL) risks within your data pipeline, preventing long-term cryptographic debt.
- Provides a defensible audit trail for autonomous AI agents, ensuring full alignment with Board risk appetite and emerging regulatory standards.
- Operationalizes vendor risk assessments to filter out AI supply chain partners that lack a valid Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) roadmap.
RISK MANAGEMENT EXCEL DESCRIPTION
What's Inside the Box? (The Engineering Core)
This suite is not just a guide; it is a set of 3 High-Impact Operational Tools (Excel) and a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP):
1. The Quantum Risk & Crypto-Debt Matrix (Excel)
Operational Goal: Identify which data assets are vulnerable to Harvest-Now-Decrypt-Later (HNDL) attacks.
Feature: Automated risk scoring based on data sensitivity years vs. current encryption standards.
2. The Vendor PQC Inquisition Audit (Excel)
Operational Goal: To audit your supply chain (OpenAI, Google, AWS, etc.) for Quantum readiness.
Feature: Pre-built "Trap" scripts and scoring logic to detect vendors who are lagging behind the 2026 PQC migration curve.
3. The Agentic AI Shadow Crypto Log (Excel)
Operational Goal: To monitor "Tier 3" Autonomous Agents that execute transactions without human-in-the-loop.
Feature: A unique HNDL Audit Flag that triggers a "Kill Switch" protocol when agents handle long-term secrets without verified PQC protection.
4. The Implementation Handbook (SOP – PDF/Docx)
A step-by-step operational guide to moving your organization from "Reactive" to "Defensible" status. Includes the Remediation Protocol and Autonomy Tier Definitions.
Strategic Problem Solved
Solving the "Messy Middle": Most tools ignore the hybrid gap between legacy systems and new tech. This suite provides the "Logic of Mass" to secure both.
NIST & Legislative Alignment: Fully mapped to the U.S. Quantum Readiness Act (S.3312) and the latest 2025 NIST algorithms.
Forensic Accountability: Provides a defensible audit trail for the Board of Directors, proving that the organization is actively managing AI and Quantum risks.
Who Is This For?
Forensic Strategists & Consultants: To use as a billable framework for client migrations.
CISOs & GRC Leads: To clear legacy crypto-debt and govern autonomous AI agents.
Supply Chain Managers: To audit third-party digital resilience.
The 2026 Competitive Advantage
In a world of "Glass Security," this suite provides Mathematical Integrity. By integrating the Agentic Shadow Log with the Quantum Risk Matrix, you are establishing a Sovereign Shield that protects your organization's history from tomorrow's machines.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Dr. Abdelhalim Rekab is a pioneer in Operational AI Governance and the architect of the AI GRC Master Suite.
With a focus on bridging the gap between theoretical compliance (EU AI Act, ISO 42001) and practical engineering, Dr. Rekab advises CISOs and Boards on how to deploy Agentic AI without creating existential debt. His work moves beyond standard "Safety" checklists to address the deep,
