Cryptographic Bill of Materials (CBOM): Step 1 of PQC Migration
You can't migrate cryptography you can't see. A practical guide to building a Cryptographic Bill of Materials — what to inventory, how to find hidden crypto, how to score by data lifetime, and how the CBOM becomes your post-quantum migration plan.
