wolfSSL is excited to announce upcoming support for the Leighton-Micali Signature (LMS) scheme in wolfPKCS11. This implementation builds upon our existing LMS support in wolfCrypt to provide a complete PKCS#11 API interface for LMS operations.
LMS, a stateful hash-based signature scheme standardized in RFC 8554 and approved by NIST SP 800-208, is already incorporated into the latest version of the PKCS#11 specification. This quantum-resistant signature scheme is designed to be resistant to attacks from quantum computers and is best used in off-line signing operations such as firmware signing.
The addition of LMS support to wolfPKCS11 will enable applications using the PKCS#11 interface to leverage wolfSSL’s proven LMS implementation.
Key Features:
- Complete PKCS#11 API support for LMS operations
- Quantum-resistant stateful hash based signature scheme
- Compliant with NIST SP 800-208 specifications
This enhancement demonstrates wolfSSL’s continued commitment to providing comprehensive support for post-quantum cryptography across our product line.
