The Collaboration
Accelerating Innovation, On and Off the Track
The collaboration will combine BWT Alpine Formula One Team’s engineering excellence with SEALSQ’s cutting-edge expertise in quantum-secure Semiconductors and quantum as a service capability, a pathway which will be explored by the team.
The partnership will focus on investigating the application of quantum-related technologies across aspects of BWT Alpine Formula One Team’s operation and security systems. SEALSQ is pioneering the future of secure technology with its work in post-quantum cryptography, secure microcontrollers, and Quantum-as-a-Service platforms. SEALSQ is providing and delivering solutions that protect data, authenticate devices, and enable secure, high-speed decision making across automotive, industrial, and connected ecosystems.
The Technology Behind the Breakthrough
Quantum Precision. Secure Performance.
SEALSQ will highlight the launch of its new QS7001 development kit at a special event during the Las Vegas Grand Prix, showcasing how cutting-edge hardware and performance innovation intersect in both technology and motorsport.
Experience exceptional speed and security with the QS7001, a powerful and versatile open hardware platform built for next-generation applications.
Built with hardware-level security that's inherently more robust than software-only implementations, it provides enhanced performance, low latency, and reliable protection across a wide range of critical applications.
Quantum Resistant CCEAL5+ open RISC-V platform
Quantum resistant
Implements post-quantum cryptography (PQC) in hardware: specifically the NIST-standardized lattice-based algorithms CRYSTALS‑Kyber (for key-encapsulation) and CRYSTALS‑Dilithium (for digital signatures).
Powerfull & fast
The SEALSQ QS7001 boasts a powerful architecture with an 80 MHz 32-bit RISC-V CPU and a dedicated cryptographic accelerator that delivers high-performance operations including post-quantum algorithms.
Certified for the post-quantum era
The SEALSQ QS7001 is certified under Common Criteria EAL5+ and supports compliance with FIPS 203 and FIPS 204, delivering advanced post‐quantum cryptography in a hardware‐based secure element.
Flexible integration for diverse secure designs
The SEALSQ QS7001 is flexible thanks to its dual-interface auto-detect (I²C/SPI), GPIOs, timers and TPM-compliant QFN32 pinout, making it easy to integrate into many hardware environments. Its open RISC-V architecture and configurable memory layout allow developers to adapt the chip to diverse secure applications with minimal redesign.
