耐量子暗号
耐量子暗号とは？
耐量子暗号（PQC）は、量子コンピュータによる攻撃に耐える新たなアルゴリズムです。新たな数学的基礎に基づく耐量子暗号アルゴリズムは、RSAやECCといった現行の暗号化方式に置き換わると予想されています。その実現には、これまでにない高度なイノベーションと産学間の連携が必要です。
量子コンピュータは、現在一般的な公開鍵暗号を解読し、情報セキュリティに大きな脅威をもたらす可能性があります。STは、新たなアルゴリズムの標準化と開発をサポートし、暗号アジャイルなエコシステムへのシームレスな移行を実現するために、耐量子暗号プログラムを立ち上げました。
ST耐量子暗号プログラム
STでは、多岐にわたる技術エキスパートが主に2つの目標を掲げて耐量子暗号の未来を築いています。
標準化プロセス
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is working together with the industry to pioneer new cryptography standards that will protect data from both quantum and classical threats. In August 2024, NIST released three new cryptographic standards: FIPS-203 (ML-KEM) for key encapsulation, FIPS 204 (ML-DSA), and FIPS 205 (SLH-DSA) for digital signature. Initially developed by ST, the Keccak algorithm plays a key role in these newly standardized quantum-safe algorithms. These three algorithms complement the LMS and XMSS (SP800-208) algorithms standardized in 2020.
円滑な移行の実現に向けた取組み
Build new application standards
ST is actively contributing to new application standards that will support a mix of quantum-safe and classical algorithms.
Offer crypto-agile products
To keep up with evolving threats and cryptographic standards, ST R&D teams focus on the development of crypto-agile hardware and software products. The goal is to help developers quickly upgrade their solutions.
