Quantum Secure Key Management: PQShield and Cryptomathic’s CrystalKey360

This joint Guide with Cryptomathic outlines the critical challenges driving a major evolution in cryptographic key management, namely the threat of quantum computing and the growing complexity of multi-cloud environments

Complacency, Not Quantum, Is the Real Threat: Mike Silverman on Why Crypto-Agility Can’t Wait

In this episode of Shielded: Jo speaks to Mike Silverman, Chief Strategy & Innovation Officer at FS-ISAC. Mike shares why treating cryptographic migrations as one-off projects leaves organisations exposed, how building inventories and risk-based models creates real readiness, and why crypto-agility, not quantum anxiety, is the foundation for long-term security.

The Crypto Agility Paradox: When Hardware Becomes Your Security Bottleneck

In this episode of Shielded, we are joined by Cassie Crossley, Vice President of Supply Chain Security in the Global Cybersecurity & Product Security Office at Schneider Electric. Cassie shares the hard-earned lessons from a multi-year crypto agility program in one of the world’s largest OT environments.

Exact Lattice Sampling from Non-Gaussian Distributions

We propose a new framework for (trapdoor) sampling over lattices.

Exploring Parallelism to Improve the Performance of FrodoKEM in Hardware

FrodoKEM is a lattice-based key encapsulation mechanism, currently a semi-finalist in NIST’s post-quantum standardisation effort.

Quantum Computing Threat: NIST PQC standards are here… how can you keep ahead?

Cryptographic agility and a clear roadmap to the NIST standards are key to a smooth and secure transition to PQC.

Quantum Computing Threat: An Overview of Post-Quantum Cryptography

The goal of this document is to provide the reader with an understanding of the key technical ideas used in post‐quantum cryptography.

Quantum Computing Threat: The First NIST Post-Quantum Cryptographic Standards

In 2016, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) launched a open and world‐ wide effort to propose, analyze and eventually standardize post‐quantum cryptographic schemes. In this white paper we find out more.

Scalable Ciphertext Compression Techniques for Post-quantum KEMs and Their Applications

A multi-recipient key encapsulation mechanism, or mKEM, provides a scalable solution to securely communicating to a large group.

The design of scalar AES Instruction Set Extensions for RISC-V

We survey the state-of-the-art industrial and academic ISEs for AES, implement and evaluate five different ISEs, one of which is novel.

Building a Modern TRNG: An Entropy Source Interface for RISC-V

The currently proposed RISC-V True Random Number Generator (TRNG) architecture breaks with previous ISA TRNG practice by splitting the Entropy Source (ES) component away from cryptographic PRNGs into a separate interface, and in its use of polling. We describe the interface, its use in cryptography, and offer additional discussion, background, and rationale for various aspects of it.

ModFalcon: Compact Signatures Based On Module-NTRU Lattices

We introduce a new family of signature schemes based on the falcon design, which relies on module lattices. Our concrete instantiation enjoys the compactness and efficiency of falcon, and allows an intermediate security level.

Cryptographic Divergences: New Techniques and New Applications

In the recent years, some security proofs in cryptography have known significant improvements by replacing the statistical distance with alternative divergences.

Mobile Energy Requirements of the Upcoming NIST Post-Quantum Cryptography Standards

We present an energy requirement analysis based on extensive measurements of PQC candidate algorithms on a Cortex M4 - based reference platform.

Post-Quantum Ciphertext Compression and Applications to Secure Group Messaging

A standard method to establish secure communications between two or more parties is to encrypt a common session key via a key encapsulation mechanism (or KEM).
