Protect every data path in defense silicon with quantum-safe memory and interface IP. PQC-encrypted PCIe links, MACsec Ethernet with ML-KEM key exchange, PQC-authenticated DMA controllers, and inline memory encryption engines with post-quantum key management — securing the buses, links, and memory subsystems that move and store mission-critical data.
Post-quantum encrypted PCIe data transfers with PQC key exchange for link-layer confidentiality. Prevents quantum-enabled eavesdropping and data exfiltration across high-speed interconnects in defense platforms.
ML-KEM key exchange integrated with IEEE 802.1AE MACsec for quantum-safe Ethernet encryption. Secures inter-board, rack-to-rack, and platform-level Ethernet links against harvest-now-decrypt-later attacks.
Inline memory encryption with PQC-managed keys protecting DRAM contents at wire speed. Hardware-enforced confidentiality and integrity for all memory-mapped data in defense SoCs and processor subsystems.
Memory buses, PCIe links, Ethernet interconnects, and DMA channels are the data highways of every defense system. Today these subsystems rely on classical encryption and authentication that quantum computers will break, exposing classified data in transit and at rest across every layer of the hardware stack.
DMA-based data exfiltration becomes trivial when encryption keys can be quantum-derived. Interface link encryption using RSA or ECC key exchange is broken by Shor's algorithm. Bus snooping attacks on unprotected or classically encrypted memory buses yield plaintext data to quantum-equipped adversaries. Every unprotected data path is a harvest-now-decrypt-later target.
