SEALSQ Corp (NASDAQ: LAES) (“SEALSQ” or “Company”), a company specializing in Semiconductors, PKI, and Post-Quantum technology hardware and software products, today announced that it will showcase a live demonstration of its PQC-optimized secure hardware platform (QS7001) during the Quantum Security Roundtable at Davos 2025. This milestone demonstration solidifies SEALSQ’s position as a global leader in quantum-resilient technology, aligning with the urgent need for secure solutions in the era of quantum computing.

The Quantum Security Roundtable will take place on January 22, 2025, at the Davos Congress Centre in Davos, Switzerland. Organized by Microsoft, WISeKey, and the Cybersecurity Tech Accord—an alliance of leading tech companies committed to improving cybersecurity—the event brings together industry leaders, policymakers, and innovators to discuss the future of quantum technologies and their implications for global security.

A World-First in Quantum-Resistant Secure Hardware
SEALSQ will be the first company to publicly demonstrate PQC algorithms running on secure hardware designed specifically for the quantum era. This hardware platform, optimized for quantum-resistant cryptography, represents a paradigm shift in secure microcontroller design. By efficiently authenticating, signing, and encrypting data while adhering to stringent certifications like FIPS and Common Criteria, SEALSQ’s platform sets a new standard for secure transactions in the quantum age.

Key Highlights of the Demonstration:

• Performance Benchmarking: The demo will compare the performance of the KYBER and DILITHIUM algorithms running on SEALSQ’s quantum-resistant platform with that of a powerful traditional secure microcontroller, the MS6003.
• Energy and Time Efficiency: The platform demonstrates superior efficiency, ensuring robust security without compromising speed or energy consumption.
• Real-World Applications: Designed for connected devices across AI, blockchain, and IoT ecosystems, SEALSQ’s hardware is built to future-proof critical infrastructures against the looming threat of quantum attacks.

The Growing Importance of Quantum-Resistant Technology
The rapid advancement of quantum computing is revolutionizing fields like AI and blockchain, but it also exposes vulnerabilities in current cryptographic systems, including RSA algorithms that safeguard millions of daily transactions. To address this challenge, NIST has endorsed quantum-resistant algorithms like KYBER and DILITHIUM, which provide robust defenses against both quantum and traditional attacks.

In response, SEALSQ’s platform combines advanced hardware engineering with state-of-the-art cryptographic algorithms to deliver secure, energy-efficient solutions for the next generation of technology.

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, Medical and Healthcare 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 http://www.sealsq.com.
