An EMV Level 1 compliant smart card reader chip family. Adopted by leading OEMs, it combines broad compatibility with excellent product performance.
🔑 PKI & Trust Services (INeS Platform)
At the core of SEALSQ's value proposition is not only secure microcontrollers, but also the ability to securely and efficiently generate, inject, and manage unique, globally trusted digital IDs for each device. PKI services create and assign a unique digital ID (certificate) to every connected device and manage the entire lifecycle.
INeS Managed PKI for IoT
With INeS, SEALSQ's PKI-as-a-Service platform, you can instantly generate and manage millions of IoT certificates that identify devices as part of trusted ecosystems such as Matter and Wi-SUN. It enables security, interoperability, and ease of use for end users.
Secure Factory Provisioning
Provisioning refers to injecting security credentials into devices. Depending on customer needs and manufacturing environments, SEALSQ offers multiple options, including chip-level provisioning, PCB-level provisioning, and provisioning of final devices before shipment.
Zero-Touch Provisioning (ZTP)
ZTP is a process that automatically configures network devices without user operation simply by physically connecting a device to the network and powering it on. This service securely provisions digital certificates and private keys directly in the field over the air, greatly minimizing operational burden and simplifying supply-chain and IoT platform connectivity.
Root CA and Chain of Trust (Root of Trust)
Public-key cryptography and digital certificates are used to encrypt or digitally sign all types of information, including communication data and firmware updates. These processes depend on the concepts of digital trust and Root of Trust, which are the only way to ensure trusted data is sent from genuine devices. SEALSQ enables the use of publicly or privately trusted root certificate authorities and builds trust models tailored to business needs.
🏅 Certifications, Compliance & Partnerships
Achieve rapid compliance with stringent regulatory frameworks and ensure the highest level of product security. SEALSQ chips are certified by some of the world’s strictest certification bodies (Common Criteria and FIPS) and are tested and manufactured to the highest standards of security, reliability, and quality. All operations are conducted in an ISO 27001 certified environment.

① Understand the Quantum Threat
SEALSQ gives a clear warning.existing public-key cryptography may be broken by the computing power of quantum systemsModern Internet and IoT systems depend onRSAandECC (elliptic curve cryptography)which base their security on the computational difficulty of factoring large integers and solving elliptic-curve discrete logarithm problems.Today, billions of IoT devices around the world are protected by these algorithms. Quantum computers have the power to overturn that security model.
Quantum computers use properties of quantum physics (superposition and quantum entanglement ) to store and process data. Conventional computers (smartphones and laptops) represent information asbitsbut quantum computers usequantum bits (qubits).
An 8-bit classical computer can represent one specific number from 0 to 255. However,an 8-qubit quantum computer can represent all numbers from 0 to 255 simultaneously. When hundreds of qubits are entangled, they can process more numerical states simultaneously than the number of atoms in the universe—this is the essence of the disruptive computing power of quantum computers.
In 1994, mathematician Peter Shor published“Shor’s algorithm”which showed that a quantum computer could factor large integers in polynomial time. The algorithm has not been invalidated; it is waiting for machines capable of running it. According to SEALSQ, that era is no longer a distant future.
A 2019 study suggested that a powerful quantum computer could break RSA inabout eight hoursGoogle’s quantum chip “Willow,” announced in late 2024, showed major progress in error correction, rapidly increasing threat assessments among experts.
SEALSQ states on its website that action is needed now, even before practical quantum computers arrive. Malicious attackers are alreadycollecting and storing encrypted communications datawith the intent to decrypt it later using future quantum computers. Harvest Now, Decrypt Later (HNDL/SNDL) attacks are now a real threat. Organizations handling sensitive information or long-life products shouldnowbegin migrating to post-quantum cryptography.
② What is PQC (Post-Quantum Cryptography)? — SEALSQ's Definition
SEALSQ defines Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) as “ , next-generation cryptographic algorithms that can remain secure against the computing power of quantum computers”. It is based on problems considered mathematically difficult for quantum computers to solve, such as lattice problems and hash functions, and can run on today’s digital infrastructure, enabling practical migration.
SEALSQ does not leave PQC as academic research; it provides it asreal silicon chips, secure firmware, and PKI cloud servicesand is one of the world’s leading companies commercializing these technologies. In Japan, these products are available through Silicon Technology.
Quantum cryptography (Quantum Key Distribution: QKD) uses quantum mechanicstosecurely distribute keys. By contrast, PQC as promoted by SEALSQ replaces algorithms running on existing digital infrastructure (software and hardware). SEALSQ believes that, for IoT and embedded devices,practically implementable PQCis the most practical approach industry can adopt now.
Current Cryptography vs Post-Quantum Cryptography — Comparison
| Item | Conventional public-key cryptography (RSA/ECC) | PQC (Post-Quantum Cryptography) |
|---|---|---|
| Mathematical basis | Factorization / discrete logarithm problems | Lattice problems / hashes / codes / multivariate polynomials |
| Resistance to classical computers | ○ Secure | ○ Secure |
| Resistance to quantum computers | ✕ At risk (Shor’s algorithm) | ○ Secure by design |
| NIST standardization | Conventional standards (e.g., FIPS 186) | Finalized in August 2024 (FIPS 203/204) |
| Implementation form | Widely deployed in software and hardware | Software implementation possible; hardware-level implementation offers the highest trust |
③ Details of NIST-Standardized Algorithms
The U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has solicited and evaluated PQC algorithms worldwide since 2016 and, in August 2024, officially published the firstPQC standards (FIPS 203 and 204)The two main algorithms are as follows.
Based on the computational difficulty of lattice problems (Module-LWE). Used for secure key sharing and exchange. Ideal for key establishment in IoT devices and TLS communications, replacing RSA and ECDH.
A lattice-based signature algorithm used for device authentication, firmware signing, and certificate issuance. Designed as a successor to ECDSA and RSA signatures and efficient in embedded environments.
A signature scheme based on NTRU lattices. Its signature and public-key sizes are very small, making it suitable for embedded devices and bandwidth-constrained communication links.
During the migration period, it is recommended to run conventional RSA/ECC and new PQC algorithmsin parallel (hybrid mode)This preserves backward compatibility with existing infrastructure while gradually adding quantum resistance. SEALSQ's QS7001 supports this hybrid migration at the hardware level.
④ SEALSQ'sApproach:Quantum Lab QUASARSProject

SEALSQ collaborates with world-class research institutions and works at the forefront of quantum-safe technology, including cooperation with France’s École des Mines. In 2022, together with France’s national cybersecurity agency ANSSI, itCommon Criteria EAL5+to develop a PQC-ready hardware Root of Trust meeting the requirements ofQUASARSProjectlaunched the project.
SEALSQ directly participates in the“Migration to PQC Consortium” led by NIST’s National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (NCCoE)contributing to industry standards while simultaneously advancing product-level implementation. This is one of its greatest strengths.
