Self-contained cryptographic subsystem designed for PQC + classical, minimal integration effort, with SCA protection

Overview

PQPlatform-SubSys is a complete cryptographic subsystem, providing services including post-quantum signature generation, verification, and secure key establishment. It combines the power of lattice-based and hash-based cryptography, deployed in a self-contained system with a built-in RISC-V processor, allowing cryptographic services to be offloaded and handled by PQPlatform-SubSys.

  • Optional side-channel security (SCA) for post quantum cryptographic algorithms
  • Hardware interfaces for secure key import/export
  • PQShield’s supplied firmware, running inside PQPlatform-SubSys
  • Firmware driver running on customer CPU (delivered as C source code)
