nQrux® Secure Boot enhances system security by enabling quantum-secure authenticated boot, crucial for verifying the authenticity and integrity of binary images during the processor boot sequence. The protection is rooted in a hybrid digital signature scheme that utilises both ECDSA and ML-DSA. ML-DSA digital signatures are designed to counter threats from quantum computing, while ECDSA provides a reliable fallback to guard against potential vulnerabilities in the newer quantum-resistant algorithms.

Features and Benefits
- Enabler for trusted computing:
- Authenticated boot creates trust in a computing platform by providing cryptographic authenticity and integrity guarantees for programs that are executed in the system.
- Secure architecture:
- The architecture is purely based on digital logic and is implemented without any hidden software components, offering first-grade security as well as easier validation and certification.
- The solution is not susceptible to side-channel attacks.
- Hybrid security:
- Simultaneous use of ECDSA and ML-DSA protects against both classical and quantum attacks.
- Easy integration:
- The simple 32-bit interface supports easy system integration.
