SEALSQ Partnering with Hedera in the Next Generation of Post-Quantum Semiconductors
17 Dezembro 2024 - 10:33AM
SEALSQ Corp (NASDAQ: LAES) ("SEALSQ" or
"Company"), a company that focuses on developing and selling
Semiconductors, PKI and Post-Quantum technology hardware and
software products, today announced a strategic partnership with
Hedera to deliver next-generation quantum-resistant semiconductors,
integrating cutting-edge security solutions to protect critical
infrastructures in the emerging post-quantum world. SEALSQ has
commenced the quality and functional testing phase for the initial
batch of its revolutionary quantum-resistant hardware platform, the
QS7001, and remains on track to begin production and delivery as
scheduled in 2025.
The collaboration between SEALSQ and Hedera
through The Hashgraph Group (THG) represents a critical step
forward in addressing quantum threats that could compromise
traditional cryptographic systems. As quantum computers evolve,
they have the potential to solve problems, such as integer
factorization and discrete logarithms, which are currently
infeasible for classical computers. This advancement threatens
public-key cryptographic systems that secure digital signatures and
transactions. Hedera’s blockchain/distributed ledger technology
(DLT) network, which relies on robust and secure cryptography for
authorizing transactions and maintaining state integrity, will
benefit from SEALSQ’s quantum-resistant chips to ensure long-term
security and resilience.
SEALSQ’s 2025 product roadmap features the
QS7001 Open Platform and the QVault Trusted Platform Module (TPM).
Engineering samples of the QS7001 are undergoing extensive physical
and logical validation to meet the highest security standards. This
technology integration with Hedera will help future-proof digital
signatures and communication channels, ensuring they are secure
against potential quantum attacks. Hedera’s adoption of the CNSA
(Commercial National Security Algorithm) Suite, which mandates
256-bit AES keys and 384-bit SHA-2 hashes, is a strong foundation
for transitioning to post-quantum cryptographic solutions.
By combining SEALSQ’s expertise in semiconductor
design with Hedera’s advanced decentralized network, the
partnership is set to provide a robust defense against quantum
vulnerabilities. With the threat of Shor’s and Grover’s algorithms
potentially compromising existing cryptographic methods, SEALSQ’s
quantum-resistant hardware ensures resilience for digital
infrastructure, financial systems, and data integrity.
The collaboration underscores a shared
commitment to innovation and security. As SEALSQ prepares for the
market launch of its Quantum-Resistant Secure Chips, the company is
poised to support Hedera’s ecosystem through the deep-tech venture
studios operated by THG globally as well as other enterprises
seeking to transition to quantum-secure infrastructures. This
strategic partnership is a pivotal move in safeguarding the future
of secure communications, transactions, and blockchain technology
in an era of quantum computing.

About SEALSQSEALSQ focuses on
selling integrated solutions based on Semiconductors, PKI and
Provisioning services, while developing Post-Quantum technology
hardware and software products. Our solutions can be used in a
variety of applications, from Multi-Factor Authentication tokens,
Smart Energy, Smart Home Appliances, Medical and Healthcare and IT
Network Infrastructure, to Automotive, Industrial Automation and
Control Systems.
Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) refers to
cryptographic methods that are secure against an attack by a
quantum computer. As quantum computers become more powerful, they
may be able to break many of the cryptographic methods that are
currently used to protect sensitive information, such as RSA and
Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC). PQC aims to develop new
cryptographic methods that are secure against quantum attacks. For
