KiviPQC-DSA is an IP core implementing the ML-DSA (Module-Lattice-based Digital Signature Algorithm), standardized in NIST FIPS 204. Designed to resist both classical and quantum attacks, ML-DSA ensures the authenticity and integrity of digital signatures well into the future.
With ML-DSA, you can:
- Generate key pairs for signing and verification
- Create digital signatures to ensure data integrity and detect modifications
- Guarantee authenticity through non-repudiation
The KiviPQC-DSA IP Core is hardened against time-based side-channel attacks (SCA). As a self-contained hardware/software co-design, it integrates all ML-DSA functions and is ready for immediate deployment. The core includes an AMBA® hardware interface for easy integration and a generic software API for flexible host control.
