BTQ Technologies and Taiwan’s Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) completed the first validation milestone for a hardware architecture designed to accelerate post-quantum cryptography (PQC). QCIM executed cryptographic operations associated with three post-quantum Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) published by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Support for multiple algorithms also enables cryptographic agility, allowing devices to accommodate different cryptographic standards and potentially adapt as security requirements evolve. The work forms part of a broader QCIM chip roadmap led by BTQ and South Korean quantum-safe semiconductor security company ICTK. BTQ provides the cryptographic architecture; ICTK contributes secure semiconductor and physical "unclonable" function technology; and ITRI handles semiconductor design, integration, and validation.
