Versatile Post-Quantum Cryptography IP Core for Balanced Performance, Area, and Power
FortifyIQ’s Post-Quantum Cryptography IP core provides a high-efficiency hardware solution supporting ML-KEM (Kyber) and ML-DSA (Dilithium) as standardized in FIPS 203 and 204, along with additional hash-based signature schemes including SPHINCS+, XMSS, and LMS. Designed for systems requiring a balanced trade-off between performance, area, and power, the IP delivers robust, quantum-safe key exchange and digital signature capabilities. Its scalable architecture supports integration into a wide range of SoCs, with built-in protections against side-channel and fault injection attacks to enable certification under FIPS 140-3 and Common Criteria. Flexible interfaces and modular design ensure seamless adoption in future-ready, security-critical applications.

“Summary. The leakage analysis (Welch t-test) on over 30 million traces did not show statistically significant first- and second-order differences between trace sets with fixed and random inputs. The template-based DPA analysis, on the pseudo-random trace set for the profiling phase (15 million traces) and on a sub-set of 300k fix input traces for matching phase targeting the first-round S-box output, and template attack on ciphertext, did not indicate any potential information leakage.”
” The results for the soft IP presented in the report were obtained on the TOE which is the basic hardware implementation of the soft IP without additional levels of security (e.g. that are present in a secure silicon layout). Therefore the internal strength of the soft IP itself was evaluated. This indicates that the investigated features and parameters of the soft IP implementation should be robust against SCA and fault injection attacks in different implementations including ASIC. Nevertheless, according to the Common Criteria rules, the strength of the final composite product must be evaluated on its own.”
