FIQ-PQC01C Post-Quantum ML-KEM IP Core

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.

Evaluation & Validation Summary
SGS Brightsight Common Criteria Laboratory
“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”
