SEALSQ QS7001 Post-Quantum Secure Element Obtains NIST SP 800-90B Entropy Source Validation
Post-quantum semiconductor provider SEALSQ Corp has secured the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Entropy Source Validation (ESV) Certificate #E333 for its QS7001 Post-Quantum Secure Element. Evaluated under the NIST SP 800-90B standard by accredited laboratory SERMA Safety and Security, this validation confirms the performance parameters of the chip’s internal random bit generation hardware. Because a verified baseline of physical unpredictability is a mandatory architectural requirement under modern cryptographic assessment frameworks, completing this evaluation serves as a core technical prerequisite for the hardware platform as it advances toward formal FIPS 140-3 and Common Criteria EAL5+ security certifications.
