Overview

Compact and Secure Post-Quantum ML-KEM IP Core for Resource-Constrained Devices

As quantum computing threatens traditional public-key cryptography, resource-constrained devices must adopt quantum-resistant algorithms without compromising efficiency or security. FortifyIQ’s ML-KEM IP addresses this challenge with a compact, energy-efficient hardware core implementing the Kyber-based Key Encapsulation Mechanism standardized in FIPS 203. Designed for secure SoC integration, it supports all ML-KEM parameter sets and includes robust protections against side-channel and fault injection attacks. The IP is engineered to meet stringent certification requirements, including FIPS 140-3 and Common Criteria, enabling secure, future-proof key exchange for embedded systems.

How to design secure SoCs Part IV: Runtime Integrity Protection

In previous articles, we gave an overview about secure SoC architectures (Part I), about the importance of key management (Part II) and secure boot (Part III) - the first line of defense. Part IV of the series focuses on runtime integrity protection, a paramount, ensuring the application remains secure even during active operation.

How to design secure SoCs Part IV: Runtime Integrity Protection

SoC designers are increasingly challenged to integrate robust security measures into their designs. Modern connected devices, such as automotive Electronic Control Units (ECUs), Internet of Things (IoT) nodes, and industrial control systems, face increasing susceptibility to cyberattacks. This escalating threat landscape underscores the critical importance of mandatory security requirements.

Nine Compelling Reasons Why Menta eFPGA Is Essential for Achieving True Crypto Agility in Your ASIC or SoC

Today’s world is already overly complicated to provide robust product security, with extremely motivated hackers creating novel threats exposing new vulnerabilities every day. But considering tomorrow’s world with the looming threat of quantum computing, expanding AI possibilities and rapidly evolving regional regulations and export control risk with severe financial penalties, this is a daunting challenge.

Overcoming power management IP challenges

With modern chips, power management sits right at the core of the architecture. Between scaling down to advanced nodes and pushing for maximum performance-per-watt, managing power has become one of the most complex, high-risk parts of silicon design. Here is what engineering teams are actually dealing with.

Providing protection against EMFI attacks
