Withstand attacks by quantum computers with xQlave® Post-Quantum Cryptography
Xiphera’s family of quantum-secure cryptographic IP cores offers protection against the imminent quantum threat – without embedded CPU or software components.
Our cryptographic IP cores are trusted by over 20 technology companies globally.
Xiphera’s xQlave® product family offers quantum-secure cryptography, consisting of secure and efficient implementations of Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) – algorithms that are designed to withstand attacks made by quantum computers. The xQlave® product family includes a portfolio of quantum-secure key exchange and digital signatures that are based on the PQC algorithmsstandardised by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
Our xQlave® PQC family offers ML-KEM (Kyber) Key Encapsulation Mechanism and ML-DSA (Dilithium) digital signature IP cores. The xQlave® product family covers various IP cores optimised for extremely small resource footprint, maximal performance, or the optimal balance between the two.
Systems designed today must support post-quantum cryptography tomorrow
The rapid development of quantum computing is revolutionising the way we look at security. Future quantum computers will have the ability to solve certain types of computational problems faster than current traditional computing architectures, offering solutions for various optimisation problems. On the other hand, this development also creates a threat to widely used classical cryptographic approaches, which are based on mathematical problems that can be solved with a powerful enough quantum computer.
This drives the development and standardisation of advanced cryptographic algorithms that withstand attacks by quantum computing platforms. These PQC algorithms are implemented on classical, non-quantum computing platforms for higher security level against quantum computer threats. It is highly possible, and even likely, that data traffic is being recorded already today for later decryption with powerful enough quantum computers. Many private and public parties are therefore recommending the implementation of quantum-secure solutions already now, with many advocating the implementation of hybrid models, where PQC algorithms are used together with classical cryptography, e.g., ECC or RSA. Read more about the benefits and implementation of hybrid models.
Xiphera’s xQlave® family of Post-Quantum Cryptography, including implementations of hybrid PQC models, complies with the PQC standards by NIST, offering our customers state-of-the-art security and fast-to-market introduction of the latest security standards.
