Thales and Samsung’s Quantum Leap in Security

In a world where quantum computing is reshaping the digital landscape, Thales has partnered with Samsung Electronics to bring forward a breakthrough in security technology. Their collaboration has been recognized with a CES 2026 award for Samsung’s new post-quantum security chip, which integrates Thales’ formidable operating system designed to withstand quantum attacks. This signifies a momentous step in protecting our connected devices from both present and future cyber threats.

The heart of this innovation lies in Thales’ robust operating system, embedding quantum-resistant security into Samsung’s acclaimed chip right from the get-go. This integration ensures that both your data and device credentials remain secure, even as classical and quantum computing threats evolve. The urgency is real; cybercriminals may already be collecting encrypted data, waiting for the day quantum tech can break today’s encryption. This could potentially expose personal data, sensitive credentials, and cryptographic keys.

Setting the Standard with Quantum-Resistant Technology

Complementing Thales’ cryptographic libraries, the Samsung chip quickly executes post-quantum algorithms without excessive power or memory consumption—a critical requirement for modern connected devices, from your everyday gadgets to massive IoT systems. “Working alongside Samsung System LSI, the new S3SSE2A chip becomes a beacon of cybersecurity evolution, efficiently providing future-proof protection while conserving energy,” stated Eva Rudin of Thales. This collaboration signifies a paradigm shift in embedded cybersecurity, ensuring quantum-proof security becomes the norm for connected devices.

Echoing this sentiment, Samsung’s Hwa Yeal Yu highlighted their historic alliance with Thales in crafting the industry’s first complete post-quantum solution. Together, they’ve crafted a solution where hardware and software seamlessly intertwine to elevate security standards for future interconnected devices.
