On October 22, 2025, SEALSQ Corp announced the launch of its Quantum Shield QS7001, the first secure chip embedding NIST‑standardized post‑quantum cryptography algorithms directly in silicon. The chip will be officially launched in mid‑November 2025, following its debut at the IQT Quantum+AI 2025 Conference in New York City, where CEO Carlos Moreira presented it during his keynote.
The QS7001 integrates ML‑KEM (CRYSTALS‑Kyber) and ML‑DSA (CRYSTALS‑Dilithium) algorithms, offering up to 10× performance gains, enhanced side‑channel resistance, and advanced tamper protection. Built as an open‑hardware platform, it supports custom firmware and hybrid cryptography migration, positioning SEALSQ as one of fewer than ten companies worldwide certified to Common Criteria EAL5+ and FIPS 140‑3 standards.
In addition to the product launch, SEALSQ announced plans to expand its Made‑in‑U.S. footprint with a new Post‑Quantum Personalization Center, evaluating California and Arizona as potential sites. The center will provide secure chip provisioning for defense, IoT, and space applications, further strengthening SEALSQ’s global supply chain and market reach.
The announcement underscores SEALSQ’s leadership in post‑quantum security and its strategy to meet U.S. and EU mandates requiring PQC adoption by 2030. With over 1.75 billion devices secured worldwide, the QS7001 launch and U.S. expansion are expected to drive future revenue growth and reinforce the company’s competitive moat.
