PQC HW/SW IP Suite is composed of three dedicated HW IP cores (PolyCore, KeccakCore, MaskCore) and the software stack leveraging these IP cores to implement PQC algorithms. It is designed to support NIST’s selected Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) standards, ML-KEM (Kyber), ML-DSA (Dilithium), SLH-DSA (SPHINCS+), and FN-DSA (Falcon). This IP is fully compliant with the NIST’s published standards, and offers countermeasures against Side-Channel Analysis attacks.
