SEALSQ and GlobalFoundries Partner on Post-Quantum Security

SEALSQ and GlobalFoundries have formed a strategic partnership to develop secure semiconductor platforms, focusing on post-quantum cryptography and semiconductor-based quantum computing technologies. The collaboration aims to create secure chiplet architectures and CryoCMOS technologies for future quantum computing systems, supporting trusted semiconductor supply chains and advancing secure hardware solutions for quantum-era infrastructure. This partnership is crucial as the development of post-quantum cryptography narrows the timeline for cryptographic migration, increasing the urgency for organizations to plan and implement PQC solutions¹. The joint effort will prioritize the development of PQC security IP, ensuring the security of future quantum computing systems. As quantum computing advances, the need for secure and reliable hardware solutions becomes increasingly important, making this partnership a significant step towards securing quantum-era infrastructure. This matters to practitioners as it underscores the need for proactive planning and implementation of post-quantum cryptography to stay ahead of the rapidly approaching deadline for cryptographic migration.
