As 2025 fast approaches, migrating to Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) should be on top of your resolution’s list to future-proof your IT infrastructure. With organizations already required to use PQC algorithms for software and firmware signing as part of CNSA Suite 2.0, it’s critical to get ahead of these changes before the 2025 deadline.
In this webinar, Volker Krummel – PQC Chapter Lead – and Lena Franke – Product Marketing Manager from Utimaco take a closer look at the required algorithms for these use cases:
We'll focus on stateful hash-based signature schemes, specifically LMS (Leighton-Micali Signature) and XMSS (eXtended Merkle Signature Scheme), as recommended in NIST Special Publication 800-208. These schemes are mature, well-standardized, and provide robust digital signatures which are vital to maintaining the integrity of software and firmware in a post-quantum world.
Join us as we cover:
- An introduction to stateful hash-based signature schemes
- Key benefits and challenges of deploying LMS / XMSS
- Effective deployment strategies for distributed environments
- A practical demonstration of state handling for these schemes
This session is designed to help you understand the practical steps for implementing PQC. Don’t miss this opportunity to prepare for the future of cybersecurity and ensure your systems remain secure in a quantum-ready landscape.
