nQrux® Hardware Trust Engines

Xiphera’s nQrux® family of Hardware Trust Engines offers customisable cryptographic security modules for various security architectures. nQrux® family provides hardware-level trust and security services for the most critical environments and applications, with full isolation of cryptographic operations and application-specific data into secure hardware elements. Cryptographic computations are performed directly in hardware, without embedded CPU or software elements, for highest degree of security, performance, and ease of validation.

nQrux® Hardware Trust Engines offer custom-tailored solutions with optimised configurations based on footprint, performance, and security requirements. The solutions are adaptable across FPGA architectures and ASIC processes. The solutions in the nQrux® family are built on Xiphera’s cryptographic IP cores, which are compliant with relevant IEEE, IETF, and NIST standards, and have been validated in the Cryptographic Algorithm Validation Program (CAVP) from NIST.

Xiphera’s nQrux® portfolio of Hardware Trust Engines offers the following solutions:

• nQrux® Root of Trust: A hardware-based trust anchor that other components in a computing system rely on for establishing trust and performing critical security operations. It establishes device identity, protects cryptographic keys, and anchors Secure Boot for ASIC and SoC implementations, with support for post-quantum cryptography. Visit nQrux® Root of Trust solution page.
• nQrux® Crypto Module: Integrated security platform, enabling a customer-tailored set of highly optimised cryptographic services for microcontrollers or SoC implementations. The nQrux™ Crypto Module powers cryptographic services for data integrity, confidentiality, and authenticity. Visit nQrux® Crypto Module solution page.
• nQrux® Confidential Computing Engine (CCE): Customisable solution protecting data, code execution, and AI (Artificial Intelligence) models in distributed environments, such as cloud and edge. The solution is tailored based on customer application, needs, and requirements. Visit nQrux® CCE solution page.
• nQrux® Quantum Secure Boot: Quantum-secure authentication for boot images and firmware updates, using a hybrid signature scheme consisting of ECDSA, a traditional digital signature scheme based on elliptic curves, and ML-DSA, a quantum-secure signature scheme.
