UltraPQ-Suite: Mature PQC in Software, FPGA and ASIC

An unparalleled range of IP for many use cases in your PQC migration… from the people who helped write the standards
.

Where we truly excel is with PQC that is Ultra Fast, Ultra Small, or Ultra Secure
Implementation matters. In fact, fundamentally changing the cryptography behind the scenes mean the way in which it’s implemented is becoming increasingly important. It’s even more acute at the extremes of optimizing for fast performance, high security, or low footprint.

PQShield’s deep knowledge (along with our patents, protocols and security techniques) enables us to move way beyond the competition and open source. We can deliver high-quality products to address these optimization problems head-on, allowing you, as a vendor, to reduce time-to-market, and helping you build PQC into greenfield and brownfield products.

PQMicroLib-Core

Highly optimizable baremetal PQC library in as little as 13kb RAM

PQMicroLib-Core is a CAVP-Ready version of PQShield’s CMVP-certified PQCryptoLib-Core, tailored specifically for embedded systems, small footprint solutions, and memory constrained devices. PQMicroLib-Core is an ultra-small library, designed with flexibility and configurability in mind.

PQCryptoLib-SDK

PQCryptoLib-Core + OpenSSL 3.x Provider for ease of integration

PQCryptoLib-SDK is a plug-and-play tool that helps to transition OpenSSL-based applications to quantum resilience, designed with prototyping and experimentation in mind. It supplies software implementations of PQC algorithms via an OpenSSL provider, including ML-DSA, Falcon, ML-KEM, and hybrid PQ/T schemes for TLS.

PQCryptoLib-Core

Highly configurable SW PQC Library for Classical, PQC and PQ/T Hybrid on Linux, Windows and Mac

PQCryptoLib-Core is a FIPS 140-3 CMVP Certified / CAVP Compliant general-purpose cryptographic library, designed for a wide variety of applications, with cryptoagility in mind. Configurable by a secure API, PQCryptoLib-Core is optimized for the threat of harvest-now-decrypt-later attacks in a manageable, easy-to-integrate software solution.

PQPlatform-CoPro

FIPS 140-3 CAVP compliant, compact hardware PQC acceleration 

PQPlatform-CoPro is a highly-flexible cryptographic coprocessor designed to add post-quantum capabilities to an existing security subsystem. It’s a powerful combination of cryptography engines, designed for performance, minimal integration effort and optimization with our world-class side-channel protection.

 

 

PQPlatform-TrustSys

PQC-first RoT with silicon-proven SCA resistance

Engineered for cryptographic implementation and agility, PQPlatform-TrustSys provides a complete, PQC-focused, Root-of-Trust security solution. With industry-leading, NIST-standardized post-quantum cryptography support (ML-KEM, ML-DSA), plus traditional ECC and RSA cryptographic algorithms, as well as fault-tolerance and side-channel countermeasures, PQPlatform-TrustSys is an ultra-secure solution for systems – before, during, and beyond the transition to PQC.

PQPerform-Flare

Up to 1M KeyEnc/sec with improved power efficiency 

PQPerform-Flare is a powerful hardware-based FIPS 140-3 CAVP-certified product, designed for high throughput and low latency PQC. It’s a self-contained, ultra-fast hardware product that adds PQC to network HSMs or other infrastructure components where high performance is required. PQPerform-Flare is optimized for TLS, as well as other use cases, and supports ML-DSA (FIPS 204) and ML-KEM (FIPS 203).

 

 

PQPerform-Inferno

Highly configurable hardware lattice PQC ultra acceleration in AXI4 and PCIe systems

PQPerform-Inferno is a powerful, scalable hardware solution that’s engineered for unparalleled performance. Building on the architecture of PQPerform-Flare, Inferno integrates multiple instances with intelligent load balancing to achieve breakthrough performance, capable of delivering over 1 million key encapsulations per second.

 

 

PQPerform-Flex

PQPerform-Inferno + RISC-V processor for enhanced cryptoagility

PQPerform-Flex is a powerful combination of PQPerform-Inferno with a RISC-V processor, providing a complete subsystem, ready for the changing cryptography needs of tomorrow. It supports a range of algorithms including HQC, one of NIST’s future candidates for standardization in 2027. PQPerform-Flex is focused on high-throughput with low latency.

 

 

 

Multi-level security profiles

As part of our commitment to security provision in different solutions of our products, we’ve developed 3 discrete security levels – Cloud Grade, Edge Grade, Lab Grade and Government Grade, which are aligned with NIST, Common Criteria, SESIP and PSA standards, as shown below. These levels are designed to be appropriate for different use cases, and are tested continuously by both PQShield and external labs for certification.

  • Different applications require different threat models
  • PQShield products in 4 security levels to address all use cases
  • Multiple papers currently published on SCA attacks and countermeasures for PQC. All our papers are available from our Publications section.
