I’ve been asked to develop a quantum-safe HSM, now what? (U31b)
When you need to store critical private keys securely, the answer is simple: buy an HSM. Need a PKI setup and secure critical private keys? Again, not a problem—buy an HSM. But when you set out to develop a quantum-safe HSM, requiring quantum-safe roots of trust (RoT), you face a unique challenge: how do you build something that doesn’t yet exist? This is the classic chicken-and-egg dilemma for HSM developers. Creating a quantum-safe HSM is a complex undertaking—definitely not a DIY project. Join us for an inside look at how quantum-safe HSMs are made and the extensive cryptographic functions they must perform to provide the services your applications depend on.
