The biggest risk to PQC migration is you (and other humans)

What if the biggest threat to your cybersecurity strategy isn’t quantum computing, but humans? In this episode of Shielded, we welcome Professor Bill Buchanan, OBE, FRSE, a global leader in applied cryptography, digital trust, and secure system design.

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.

Your Hardware Refresh Is a Quantum Deadline with Mamta Gupta, Lattice Semiconductor

In this episode of Shielded, Johannes Lintzen sits down with Mamta Gupta of Lattice Semiconductor to explore how hardware-rooted security must evolve to meet the post-quantum challenge.

Efficient Boolean-to-Arithmetic Mask Conversion in Hardware

Masking schemes are key in thwarting side-channel attacks due to their robust theoretical foundation. Transitioning from Boolean to arithmetic (B2A) masking is a necessary step in various cryptography schemes.

High-Performance NTT Hardware Accelerator to Support ML-KEM and ML-DSA

This work presents a novel architecture of a high-performance NTT accelerator capable of performing both NTT and inverse NTT operations using a single set of hardware resources.

Video 1 – Algorithims are just recipes

The release of the new NIST standards is a great achievement but as Ali and Ben discuss in this recent video, algorithms are really only recipes – the key is how you use them.

Video 2 – NIST standards – the PQC turning point

In this video, Ben and Ali celebrate the publication of the first NIST PQC Standards. It’s a terrific achievement and a success for the whole collaborative PQC community.

Video 3 – How to think crypto agile

In this video, Ali and Ben talk about the way we each think about our business, and how that impacts decisions we make when it comes to protecting it – how can we deploy solutions that are able to change? What level of risk is acceptable?

Video 4 – Celebrating the cryptography community

In this clip, Ben and Ali reflect on the origins of PQShield as part of the wider cryptographic community and explain how great it is to be part of a community of unquestionably brilliant but genuinely down-to-earth cryptographers.

Video 5 – No can to kick down the road – it’s all about compliance

In this video, Ben and Ali discuss compliance, particularly as industry builds around the certifications for PQC.

Video 6 – Post-quantum is an era

In this video, Ali and Ben discuss some of the wider pieces of cryptography, many of which are not vulnerable to the quantum threat, but form essential components nevertheless, in the ‘post-quantum’ era.

Video 7 – Is it time to stop talking about PQC?

In this clip, Ben and Ali discuss the terminology of ‘post-quantum’. Is it still relevant? Is it misleading?

Video 8 – PQC in silicon

In this clip, Ben and Ali talk about PQShield’s silicon implementation of PQC – showing that we haven’t just designed PQC solutions, we’ve actually built our hardware IP onto a physical chip!

Video 9 – Standardization – what’s next?

In this video, Ben and Ali discuss NIST’s timeline, including FALCON, Round 4 KEMs, the necessary mix of lattice, code-based and hash algorithms, as well as the ongoing effort to select digital signatures.

HPKA: A High-Performance CRYSTALS-Kyber Accelerator Exploring Efficient Pipelining

This work explores several architectural optimizations and proposes a high-performance and area-time (AT) product efficient hardware accelerator for Kyber.
