Thales Powers CES*-Winning Post-Quantum Chip From Samsung Electronics
Thales' quantum-resistant OS embedded in Samsung's S3SSE2A chip provides hardware-based post-quantum cryptography to secure devices against future quantum-enabled cyber threats.
- At CES 2026 in Las Vegas, Samsung Electronics System LSI Business and Thales unveiled Thales embedding its hardened secure OS and quantum-resistant libraries into Samsung's S3SSE2A embedded Secure Element chip, detailed in a BusinessWire release from Meudon, France.
- Quantum computers will ultimately challenge today's encryption standards, and malicious actors can intercept data now to decrypt later, posing risks for a post-quantum world.
- Thales' secure operating system and quantum-resistant libraries enable the S3SSE2A chip to run high-speed post-quantum cryptography with reduced power and memory use.
- The collaboration positions the Samsung security chip embedding Thales' OS as a benchmark after CES 2026's recognition with the 'Best Cybersecurity Innovation' award.
- With corporate backing that includes more than 83,000 employees and 20.6 billion in 2024 sales, Thales supports long-term, hardware-based quantum-resistant protection from device power-on.
