RulenameQuantum-vulnerable key detected in Key Vault
DescriptionA key in Azure Key Vault has been classified as quantum-vulnerable (RSA or elliptic-curve).

These key types are broken by Shor’s algorithm on a sufficiently large fault-tolerant quantum computer.

Rotate to a PQ-hybrid key (ML-KEM, ML-DSA) or plan migration before the harvest-now-decrypt-later

window closes for long-lived data.
