Latest Release of ISS Solutions Supports New Standards Announced by NIST
SANTA BARBARA, Calif., Oct. 22, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- INTEGRITY Security Services™ (ISS), a leader in embedded security for connected devices, today announced that the latest release of the ISS solutions now include support for post-quantum cryptography (PQC) algorithms. The new FIPS 203, 204, and 205 standards recently announced by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) specify PQC algorithms in a bid to maintain the security of government systems against quantum computers.
In the face of growing global unrest and increasing cyber threats, the adoption of advanced security technologies is no longer optional. With the imminent risk of quantum computing breaking current cryptographic systems, it is crucial for developers, device manufacturers and semiconductor companies to incorporate new PQC algorithms into their cryptography libraries. What's more, they need to leverage these algorithms in their code signing, and in encrypting their data in motion and at rest.
With the addition of two PQC signature algorithms and one key encapsulation mechanism (KEM) algorithm to the comprehensive ISS security suite, developers and manufacturers can now be confident in meeting the highest standards for the end-to-end lifecycle of the connected devices they design. With these proven and tested algorithms, certificates and code signing, developers can avoid the risks and delays of trying to implement new algorithms on their own. This will put them ahead of the curve when these PQC algorithms are mandated for government systems and adopted by other regulatory authorities such as the FDA, the EU (European Union), and the ITU (International Telecommunication Union).
"We're leading the way in supporting these critical post-quantum algorithms," said David Sequino, Co-Founder and CEO of ISS. "We have always been on top of the latest cybersecurity developments, and this is no different. While we may be in the early days of quantum computing, we're making sure you have the proven, end-to-end tools and support now to create robust and secure designs for the future when quantum computing becomes pervasive."
Updates to the ISS solutions include:
- Addition of PQC algorithms to the ISS FLEX toolkits, enabling product developers, software engineers, and security experts to easily embed the latest cryptographic security functions into their devices and systems.
- Inclusion of crypto functions into a range of IP Blocks in HDL, meaning engineers can now add high-performance security operations to any FGPA or SOC.
- Support for PQC algorithms in the ISS DLM platform so that manufacturers and suppliers can quickly and confidently secure the entire device lifecycle from design and manufacturing to provision and updating and ongoing services.
