European universal chip designer Tachyum has added all four post-quantum cryptography (PQC) algorithms to the software distributions for its Prodigy processor.
Adding the quantum-safe PQC algorithms, approved by the US National Institute of Standards and Technology as a global standard last August, ensures data centre deployments using the company’s universal processor are quantum-resistant and future-proofed for data security.
Tachyum’s software engineering team has ported and verified the four quantum-resistant asymmetric algorithms – ML-KEM, ML-DSA, SLH-DSA and Falcon. The Prodigy processor also supports the AES-256 standard, which has already been optimized. Tachyum’s post-quantum cryptography (PQC) will run on all Prodigy platforms.
Battle for the next generation of supercomputer
“Tachyum takes security very seriously – from both a hardware and software perspective – so the development of quantum computer-proof data security methods is critical to us maintaining such a commitment,” said Dr. Radoslav Danilak, founder and CEO of Tachyum. “As such, we will continue to monitor future cryptograph standards to ensure that Prodigy-based systems remain capable of providing the highest level of security and optimum performance for customers and partners.”
The Prodigy Universal Processor allows data centre servers to dynamically switch between different computational domains such as AI/ML, HPC, and cloud with a single homogeneous architecture. This eliminates the need for expensive dedicated AI hardware and can significantly increase server utilization.
Prodigy integrates 192 high-performance custom-designed 64-bit compute cores, to deliver up to 4.5x the performance of the highest-performing x86 processors for cloud workloads, up to 3x that of the highest performing GPU for HPC, and 6x for AI applications. It is currently developing the chip on a 3nm process technology.
