SEALSQ Pioneers Trusted IoT Device Onboarding Solutions with the United States NIST National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence NCCoE
February 15 2024 - 9:32AM
SEALSQ Corp ("SEALSQ" or "Company") (NASDAQ: LAES) a company that
focuses on developing and selling Semiconductors, PKI and
Post-Quantum technology hardware and software products, today
announced its involvement in groundbreaking project led by the
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) for the
development of the first Quantum-Resistant USB Token demonstrator
by the Post-Quantum engineering team.
This collaboration, which is part of the SEALSQ
QUASARS project, aims to establish a foundation for Post-Quantum
Cryptography readiness, featuring hybrid solutions in line with the
recommendations of the French National Cybersecurity Agency
(ANSSI).

SEALSQ’s participation in this groundbreaking
project led by the NIST National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence
(NCCoE) is set to revolutionize the way Internet of Things (IoT)
devices are onboarded and managed across networks, ensuring a new
standard of security and trust in the rapidly expanding IoT
landscape.
As the digital world continues to evolve, the
need for robust, scalable, and trusted methods for IoT device
management becomes ever more critical. SEALSQ, in partnership with
NIST, is at the forefront of defining and implementing best
practices for trusted network-layer onboarding, a key component in
safeguarding IoT devices from unauthorized access and
manipulation.
Innovative Contributions to Secure IoT
Ecosystems
SEALSQ is contributing its expertise and
innovative solutions to this vital project, including its Trust
Services for credentials and secure semiconductors. Through the
INeS Certificate Management Service (CMS), SEALSQ will facilitate
the issuance of credentials, while its VaultIC secure
semiconductors will provide unparalleled tamperproof key storage
and cryptographic acceleration. These contributions are essential
for the trusted network-layer onboarding of IoT devices, ensuring
secure lifecycle management from inception to retirement.
Addressing the Challenges of IoT Security
The collaboration aims to tackle the inherent
vulnerabilities that come with provisioning network credentials to
IoT devices in unsecured manners. By developing trusted, scalable,
and automatic mechanisms, the project seeks to enhance the
management of IoT devices throughout their lifecycles, starting
with the crucial step of secure network credential
provisioning.
A Milestone in Quantum-Resistant
Technologies
A highlight of SEALSQ's involvement in the NCCoE
project is the development of the first Quantum-Resistant USB Token
demonstrator by the Post-Quantum engineering team. This achievement
is part of the QUASARS project, which aims to establish a
foundation for Post-Quantum Cryptography readiness, featuring
hybrid solutions in line with the recommendations of the ANSSI.
Collaborative Efforts for a Secure Future
SEALSQ's partnership with NIST and other leading
technology providers underscores a collective commitment to
enhancing IoT security. This initiative is supported by a
consortium of technology partners and collaborators, including
Aruba (a Hewlett Packard Enterprise company), CableLabs, Cisco,
Foundries.io, Kudelski IOT, NquiringMinds, NXP Semiconductors, the
Open Connectivity Foundation (OCF), Sandelman Software Works,
SEALSQ and Silicon Labs.
This collaboration marks a significant step
towards establishing safer, more reliable IoT environments,
demonstrating SEALSQ's dedication to pioneering solutions that meet
the challenges of today's digital world.
About SEALSQ:SEALSQ focuses on
selling integrated solutions based on Semiconductors, PKI and
Provisioning services, while developing Post-Quantum technology
hardware and software products. Our solutions can be used in a
variety of applications, from Multi-Factor Authentication tokens,
Smart Energy, Smart Home Appliances, and IT Network Infrastructure,
to Automotive, Industrial Automation and Control Systems.
Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) refers to cryptographic methods
that are secure against an attack by a quantum computer. As quantum
computers become more powerful, they may be able to break many of
the cryptographic methods that are currently used to protect
sensitive information, such as RSA and Elliptic Curve Cryptography
(ECC). PQC aims to develop new cryptographic methods that are
secure against quantum attacks.For more information please visit
