PUFsecurity, a subsidiary of eMemory, Achieves NIST CAVP Certification for PQC Algorithms, Launches PUF-PQC Architecture for Quantum-Resilient SoCs

(Hsinchu Taiwan, July 8th, 2025) PUFsecurity Corporation today announces that its proprietary post-quantum cryptography (PQC) algorithms have officially passed the Cryptographic Algorithm Validation Program (CAVP) by the U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), with validation ID #39639. The certified implementations include FIPS 203 (ML-KEM) and FIPS 204 (ML-DSA), two of the key post-quantum standards.

This milestone confirms PUFsecurity’s readiness to support the upcoming wave of quantum-resilient deployments with validated, deployable PQC IPs. These IPs provide dual-stack cryptography, supporting both classical and post-quantum schemes, making them ideal for SoC designers looking to future-proof their architectures.

PUF-PQC: End-to-End Quantum-Safe Security Architecture

PUF-PQC is PUFsecurity’s flagship security architecture for the post-quantum era. It integrates NeoPUF, PUFtrng, high-performance PQC accelerators, and advanced memory architectures to fully support NIST PQC standards. With CAVP-certified implementations, PUF-PQC enables secure boot, digital signatures, key exchange, and VPNs, scaling from automotive MCUs to IoT devices.

NeoPUF generates a unique inborn hardware key for each chip, forming the root of trust for PQC key systems. PUFtrng provides low-power, high-quality entropy sources, compliant with NIST SP 800-90 standards, ideal for protocols like TLS 1.3 or PQ-VPN requiring frequent key refresh.

To optimize performance, PUF-PQC employs near-memory computing, co-locating PQC logic near high-speed SoC memory to reduce latency and power consumption, making it ideal for ML-KEM operations in resource-constrained or real-time environments.

CAVP Certification: Assurance of Security and Compliance

NIST CAVP certification is a globally recognized benchmark that verifies algorithm correctness and tool compatibility, providing a foundation for future FIPS 140 module certifications. PUFsecurity’s successful certification reinforces customer confidence and regulatory compliance in adopting quantum-resistant encryption.

Leading the Quantum Transition

Following NIST’s official release of FIPS 203 and FIPS 204 in 2024, the global transition window (2025–2030) has begun. PUFsecurity’s validated PQC-ready solutions are positioned to lead this shift, aligning with migration guidance from NSA, ENISA, and ETSI to secure high-risk infrastructure through dual-stack and hybrid deployments.

熵碼科技(力旺電子子公司)後量子密碼學演算法通過美國 NIST CAVP 認證,PUF-PQC 架構正式啟動全球量子安全新時代

【台灣新竹,2025年7月8日】晶片安全領導廠商熵碼科技(PUFsecurity)今日宣布,其自研後量子密碼學(Post-Quantum Cryptography, PQC)演算法已正式通過美國國家標準與技術研究院(NIST)旗下的加密演算法驗證計畫(CAVP)認證,驗證代碼為 #39639,涵蓋最新聯邦標準 FIPS 203(ML-KEM)與 FIPS 204(ML-DSA)兩大核心演算法。

這項里程碑式的成果,意味著熵碼科技在全球後量子加密標準落地的關鍵時期,已取得完整且可部署的技術實力,為 SoC 設計者提供可立即導入、兼容傳統與量子抗性的雙模硬體密碼模組,成為晶片產業推動「量子韌性(Quantum-Resilience)」轉型的先行者。

PUF-PQC 架構:從演算法到晶片的全方位量子安全平台

PUF-PQC 為熵碼科技針對後量子時代打造的旗艦級安全架構,整合 NeoPUF、PUFtrng、高效能 PQC 加速器與創新記憶體設計,提供完整支援 NIST PQC 標準的硬體密碼解決方案。此次通過 CAVP 認證的 PQC 加密引擎,可廣泛應用於 Secure Boot、數位簽章、密鑰交換與 VPN 等資安關鍵應用,涵蓋從車用晶片到物聯網裝置的多樣部署場景。

其中 NeoPUF 技術能生成每顆晶片唯一的原生密鑰(Inborn Hardware Unique Key),為整個 PQC 密鑰體系提供根本信任根(Root of Trust)。PUFtrng 則提供通過 NIST SP 800-90 標準測試的真隨機數產生能力,確保在低功耗下也能實現高強度的熵源輸出。

PUF-PQC 同時採用創新的近記憶體運算(Near-Memory Computing)架構,將 PQC 加速邏輯與 SoC 記憶體直接結合,有效降低延遲與功耗,極大提升 ML-KEM 等高負載 PQC 任務的執行效率。

CAVP 認證:安全與合規的雙重保證

NIST CAVP 認證為當前密碼演算法可信性最高標準之一,涵蓋演算法的正確性驗證與測試工具相容性,並為未來進入 FIPS 140 系列的系統安全認證奠定基礎。此次認證確認了熵碼科技實作的 PQC 演算法完全符合美國政府與商用領域的部署標準,為客戶導入量子抗性解決方案提供關鍵信心與合規保障。

全球量子轉型起跑,熵碼領航安全升級

隨著 NIST 於 2024 年正式發布 FIPS 203 與 FIPS 204 後量子聯邦標準,並啟動產業部署期(2025–2030),各界已進入密碼學架構全面轉型的關鍵窗口期。熵碼科技此次順利取得 CAVP 認證,標誌其 PQC-ready 解決方案已準備好支援下一世代 SoC 與嵌入式應用的安全升級,符合 NSA、ENISA、ETSI 等國際組織提出的「雙棧整合」與「高風險優先遷移」建議。
