Overview
The PKCS IP is specifically designed for RSA Laboratories' Public-Key Cryptography Standards (PKCS) series, specifically PKCS #5 v2.0.
With its internal data memory block interface, the PKCS IP simplifies programming and execution, making it the ideal solution for your cryptographic needs.
Function
Main Building Blocks:
- Input Data Memory Interface
- Output Data Register Bank
- Program and Constant ROMs
- CoProcessor (with the Register Banks)
Experience seamless data exchange with our advanced PKCS IP.
By reading from external memory and writing results to a dual output register bank, our IP efficiently performs PKCS computations based on the hardwired program in the program ROM.
This ensures optimal performance and reliability for your cryptographic_needs.
Functions available
- SHA256
- HMAC_SHA256
- PBKDF2
- KDF2
Functions with special requirements are available in a short time upon request

Formally verifying AVX2 rejection sampling for ML-KEM
Formal verification of cryptography comes in many flavours. The levels of abstraction range from high-level protocol designs to machine-level implementations. At each level of abstraction, different target properties and formal verification technologies apply. In this post we look at the latter end of this spectrum and consider a highly-optimized architecture-specific implementation of a core routine of the recent NIST post-quantum standard FIPS-203: Module-Lattice-Based Key Encapsulation Mechanism (ML-KEM)
