SEALSQ Corp has introduced a groundbreaking partnership with WISeID.COM which integrates cutting-edge Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) technology to bolster the security of electronic identities and documents. This collaboration has been specially designed to safeguard against the looming threats posed by quantum computing. This can potentially undermine the existing cryptographic frameworks like ECC and RSA.
The main focus of this initiative is based on crafting crypto-agile solutions that are capable of accommodating a wide range of cryptographic algorithms which is a crucial aspect for managing TLS certificates. WISeID.com offers a suite of digital identity protection services.
These services include a lot of things such as complimentary identity validation through facial recognition, document signing services as well as various levels of digital certificates.
This partnership is a proactive response to the increasing demand for quantum-resistant security measures which are especially for long-lasting documents like eID cards which often remain valid for over a decade.
The strategic integration of PQC technology with WISeID.COM significantly boosts the portfolio of the product, and the development of a quantum-resistant security solution also positions the company as a leader in addressing the demands of the market. Multiple revenue opportunities are created through the tiered digital certificate.
However, there are some drawbacks as well such as a substantial investment is required to adapt infrastructure for post-quantum security. There is also a reliance on the parent company, WISeKey International Holding for the WISeID.COM platform.
SEALSQ is quite dedicated to delivering the best-integrated solutions that make use of semiconductors, provisioning services and PKI along with advancing hardware as well as software products in Post-Qunatum technology. The offering spans a wide range of applications such as Smart Energy, Medical and Healthcare systems, Smart Home Devices, Multi-Factor Authentication tokens, Automotive and Industrial Automation as well as IT Network infrastructure.
