Infineon Technologies AG has announced that it is taking security to the next level with the new OPTIGA TPM (Trusted Platform Module) SLB 9672, a future-proof security solution with post-quantum cryptography (PQC) protected firmware update mechanism using XMSS signatures. The mechanism brought by the OPTIGA TPM with PQC can counteract the threat of firmware corruption by attackers with access to quantum computers and increases the long-term survivability of the device by enabling a quantum-resistant firmware upgrade path. In addition, the OPTIGA TPM family is the industry’s first TPM to offer a firmware update mechanism with a 256-bits key length, along with an additional check based on PQC. Its design is engineered for improved computing performance with fail-safe features that counteract the effects of corrupted firmware. For instance, built-in fail-safe features enable TPM firmware recovery in accordance with the NIST SP 800-193 Platform Firmware Resiliency Guidelines.
