Company profile
Crypto Quantique
London company designing silicon hardware root-of-trust IP that derives cryptographic keys from chip-level physical variation, licensed into connected-device chips alongside a key-management platform.
Company overview
Developing security IP and embedded software for SoCs, Crypto Quantique works with silicon design teams on hardware identity, cryptography and root-of-trust integration. Its services include security architecture validation and guidance on hardware–software integration, memory requirements and area and power constraints. QDID PUF IP derives device identities from variations in quantum tunnelling currents through transistor gate oxides, generating keys without storing identities in memory. The company reports verification across bulk CMOS, FDSOI and FinFET processes from 55 nm to 12 nm. QRoot Lite provides configurable root-of-trust soft IP for resource-constrained microcontrollers and IoT devices, supporting secure boot, device attestation and sealed storage using the TCG MARS specification. Other offerings include cryptographic cores, fault-injection detection, random-number generation and device-management software. Target applications include medical devices, industrial systems and automotive electronics. The supplied pages do not establish a UK location or ownership.
