About this paper
Christian Näther, Eduard Hirsch
Crypsy builds a cryptographic inventory from source code, configuration, dependencies, and cryptographic files. It classifies evidence as secret material, structured artifacts, or invocations, then applies separately maintained discovery and assessment rules. On a synthetic benchmark, it achieved occurrence-level F1 of 0.75. Across ten services, it found 370 components, including 52 migration candidates, against a partial manual reference.
