Taipei -- September 9, 2025 -- With the advancement of quantum computing technology, current encryption algorithms are at risk of becoming obsolete, leading to an increasingly severe threat of "harvest now, decrypt later" methodologies by bad actors. In response, the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) released CNSA 2.0 in September 2022, setting a timeline for encryption modernization, aiming for all systems to support post-quantum cryptography (PQC) by 2030. This move is driving international manufacturers to accelerate security upgrades.
Jmem Tek, a leading Taiwanese hardware security company, has pioneered the development of the world's first post-quantum cryptography (PQC) native key security chip based on physically unclonable functions (PUFs). Jmem Tek recently achieved FIPS 140-3 CAVP certification from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) for its proprietary platform while also verifying Jmem Tek’s implementation of the latest cryptographic standard SP 800-232 (ASCON). This not only demonstrates Jmem Tek's leading position in international post-quantum security technology but also highlights Taiwan's exceptional strength in security technology research and development.
Jmem Tek's post-quantum cryptography (PQC) native key security chip has achieved NIST FIPS 140-3 CAVP, FIPS 203 (ML-KEM), and FIPS 204 (ML-DSA) certifications using its proprietary platform. It also fully supports the newly released ASCON algorithm, becoming the first to comply with SP 800-232. This means its algorithm security and reliability have reached the highest international standards, demonstrating its rapid response and R&D capabilities to meet the security standards of the quantum era. This algorithm effectively resists the high-speed decryption threats posed by quantum computers, providing low-latency, highly efficient security protection on the chip.
This certification not only demonstrates Jmem Tek’s leading position in post-quantum security technology but also enables its unique solutions to help customers achieve preemptive compliance with international procurement regulations and complete hardware security upgrades before the U.S. government's CNSA 2.0 specification takes effect.
Jmem Tek has been invited to exhibit for the first time in the "Chip Innovation Zone" at SEMICON
Taiwan 2025, the international semiconductor exhibition. From September 10th to 12th, the company will showcase its products and provide forums to further enhance the public's understanding of quantum-era security solutions. Jmem Tek’s Chief Technology Officer Luo Yucheng will present "Post-Quantum Application Presentation" at the SECPAAS Security Hall in Nangang Exhibition Hall 2 at 2:00 PM on September 10th, and at the "UPNEXT Stage" in the Innovation Zone in Nangang Exhibition Hall 2 at 2:00 PM on September 11th. He will share how the company's technological strengths are building a solid security defense for the post-quantum era, focusing on "Applications of Post-Quantum Cryptography and AI Edge Computing." By receiving NIST CAVP certification and preemptively implementing the ASCON algorithm, Jmem Tek reaches a significant milestone in the company's efforts to advance global supply chain security and establish the highest level of cybersecurity protection. The company will use SEMICON Taiwan as a platform to demonstrate its commitment to technological leadership and market expansion.
