Updates on the wolfSSL PQ FIPS 140-3 efforts and the v7.0.0 module

Supporting a post-quantum algorithm is not the same as being able to use it in a FIPS 140-3 validated application. The module boundary, hybrid mode, target platform, and build configuration can determine whether an integration remains within the validation.

Join wolfSSL for a technical update on the upcoming wolfCrypt FIPS 140-3 v7.0.0 module. See which post-quantum algorithms are planned, how classical-PQ hybrid modes interact with the FIPS boundary, and what developers may need to change when integrating or migrating to v7.0.0.

This webinar will cover:

  • Post-quantum algorithms and CNSA 2.0 support
  • FIPS boundary rules for classical-PQ hybrid modes
  • RAM, ROM, stack, and performance benchmarks
  • Planned day-one operational environments and acceleration support
  • API, configuration, and migration changes for v5 and v6 users
  • Emerging CMVP requirements for PQC and hybrid modes

Ask the Expert: Answers Key Questions
Our experts answer key questions about what attendees will learn

Which post-quantum algorithms are planned for v7.0.0?
The planned algorithms include ML-KEM, ML-DSA, SLH-DSA, LMS, and XMSS. Their roles in applicable CNSA 2.0 requirements will also be mapped.

How do classical-post-quantum hybrid modes interact with the FIPS boundary?
A hybrid mode may involve cryptographic operations that are not all covered by the same validated module boundary. Developers must determine which classical, post-quantum, and combining operations are included when evaluating the complete construction.

What should v5 and v6 users check before migrating?
Developers should review planned API and build-configuration changes, then confirm coverage for their target platform and accelerated implementation. Planned operational environments, acceleration support, and resource benchmarks will support that assessment.
