Protection against quantum computer attacks using NIST and CNSA algorithms
Home > Security IP > Quantum Safe Cryptography IP
Quantum computers will be able to rapidly break current asymmetric encryption, placing important data and assets at risk. Rambus Quantum Safe IP solutions offer a hardware-level security solution to protect data and hardware against quantum computer attacks using NIST and CNSA selected algorithms.
Rambus Quantum Safe IP products are compliant with the following draft FIPS standards:
The products can be deployed in ASIC, SoC and FPGA implementations for a wide range of applications including data center, AI/ML, defense and other highly secure applications. Products are firmware programmable to allow for updates with evolving quantum-resistant standards.
