KiviCore has introduced a state-of-the-art Post-Quantum Digital Signature Algorithm (ML-DSA) IP core designed to provide robust signature integrity against both classical and emerging quantum threats. This core is engineered to maintain data authenticity and non-repudiation, supporting key features like signature generation and verification with very high throughput. The IP's architecture is optimized for minimal logic usage, offering variants that cater to both resource-constrained environments and applications requiring maximum performance.
The KiviPQC-DSA core addresses the need for future-proof cryptographic algorithms by adhering to NIST's FIPS 204 standards, providing assurance in integrity checks for critical infrastructure and digital communications. It includes functional security against timing-based side-channel attacks, essential for the growing demand for secure boot and firmware validations.
Integration is effortless thanks to its platform-independent hardware/software design, featuring the AMBA AXI-4-Lite interface along with comprehensive C-source code and APIs. This ensures seamless deployment across varied systems including FPGA and ASIC platforms, reinforcing the core as a reliable solution for maintaining signature authenticity in sensitive domains.
