Kudelski IoT, a leading provider of digital security and IoT solutions, has launched a quantum-resistant security IP to future-proof semiconductors against emerging quantum threats. This innovation integrates quantum-resistant algorithms into KSE security IP products, safeguarding System on Chip (SoC) devices from advanced capabilities of quantum computers. Traditional cryptographic methods, such as RSA and Elliptic Curve Cryptography, are at risk of becoming vulnerable within the next decade.
The integrated algorithms, including LMS, ML-KEM, and ML-DSA, recommended by leading bodies like NIST and CNSA 2.0, ensure robust protection against quantum-based threats. This solution is crucial for devices with long lifecycles, benefiting sectors like automotive, telecommunications, energy, finance, healthcare, government, and military.
Frédéric Thomas, CTO of Kudelski IoT, emphasized the company’s comprehensive approach to tackling the quantum challenge. With its renowned Security Labs and device-to-cloud Public Key Infrastructure solution, keySTREAM, Kudelski IoT offers a suite of services to assist manufacturers in navigating the transition to quantum security.
Quantum-Resistant Security for the Next Generation of Chips and Devices
The advent of quantum computing poses a significant threat to traditional cryptographic systems, which are expected to become vulnerable within the next decade. To address this emerging risk, Kudelski IoT has integrated quantum-resistant cryptography into its KSE security IP products for semiconductor manufacturers. This integration enables the protection of System on Chip (SoC) products and devices from quantum computing threats, ensuring long-term data protection for customers.
Quantum-Resistant Cryptography (QRC) is specifically designed to withstand the advanced capabilities of quantum computers. Traditional cryptographic methods, such as RSA and Elliptic Curve Cryptography, face the risk of becoming vulnerable. By incorporating quantum-resistant algorithms into the KSE, Kudelski IoT strengthens the security of SoCs, protecting them from emerging threats while maintaining performance, efficiency, and flexibility.
The integration of QRC into KSE includes the use of LMS from NIST special publication SP800-208 for stateful hash-based signature schemes, ML-KEM from FIPS 203 standard for key encapsulation mechanisms, and ML-DSA from FIPS 204 standard for digital signatures. These algorithms, recommended by leading bodies such as the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and in US CNSA 2.0 (The Commercial National Security Algorithm Suite 2.0), ensure that SoCs are well-protected against quantum-based threats.
Future-Proofing Connected Assets with Quantum-Resistant Cryptography
Quantum-Resistant Cryptography is crucial for devices and data with long lifecycles, making sectors like automotive, telecommunications, energy, finance, healthcare, government, and military prime beneficiaries of these advanced cryptographic methods. The integration of QRC into KSE provides a future-proof solution to safeguard the authenticity, integrity, and confidentiality of IoT assets, automotive application assets, and AI models in a post-quantum world.
A major advantage of Kudelski IoT’s solution is its ability to update cryptographic algorithms in the field as new vulnerabilities or advances in cryptography emerge. This ensures that manufacturers can keep their devices secure without the need for costly recalls or hardware replacements, providing a level of security that evolves with technology.
