Device authentication and attestation

Integrity of embedded devices

Remote devices can be weak points for a network

Remote devices are often potential weak points of a network, being physically exposed from yet entirely connected to a system that requires constant communiction. As a result, embedded devices need to prove that their identity has not been compromised (authentication) and that they are running genuine, untampered software or firmware (attestation).

PQCryptoLib-Embedded

Using post-quantum cryptographic schemes that have been specifically optimized for resource-constrained environments, PQCryptoLib-Embedded enables remote attestation of embedded devices. With the advent of quantum computing, the potential for compromised devices will only increase, and it’s likely that embedded systems will require flexible, updatable, crypto agile solutions. PQCryptoLib-Embedded has been designed to protect embedded devices from the quantum threat.
