Quantropi will exhibit at embedded world North America 2026, September 22–24 at the Anaheim Convention Center, Booth 6808 in Exhibit Hall B.
Quantropi will showcase four software-defined, quantum-secure IoT solutions at embedded world North America 2026, helping embedded device manufacturers begin their transition to quantum-safe security without redesigning hardware or replacing existing platforms. Delivered through the QiSpace™ platform, these solutions for IoT and embedded systems — TRNG, Secure Boot, Secure Network, and Application Security — run on the microcontrollers, chipsets, and infrastructure manufacturers already use.
Designed for resource-constrained environments, these solutions enable practical adoption of post-quantum cryptography and software-defined security. Attendees can see them in action at Booth 6808 in Exhibit Hall B, meet the Quantropi team, and start a free QiSpace™ for IoT trial.
Why is this year’s embedded world North America conference important for industry leaders to attend?
IoT and embedded devices now underpin modern industry. As they become more connected and remain in the field longer, their cryptographic foundations must evolve. Embedded world North America convenes the engineers, developers, and technical decision-makers who evaluate technologies, compare suppliers, and initiate purchasing for the embedded ecosystem.
The timing is critical. U.S. Executive Order 14409 sets firm post-quantum migration deadlines — key establishment by December 31, 2030, and digital signatures by December 31, 2031. These requirements reach beyond federal contractors and critical infrastructure to the IoT and embedded suppliers that serve them. At the same time, FIPS 140-3 entropy source requirements are raising the bar for what counts as strong randomness. And because long-lived embedded devices will operate well into the quantum era, data encrypted today can be harvested now and decrypted later — making early migration a competitive advantage.
While enterprise environments often get the most attention, embedded systems are frequently harder to modernize. Resource constraints, long deployment lifecycles, limited update channels, and distributed architectures complicate cryptographic upgrades. Manufacturers that plan and begin their transition now will set the pace their sectors follow.
Quantropi’s QiSpace™ for IoT solutions are designed for this kind of migration: modernizing security without replacing working infrastructure. At embedded world North America 2026, Quantropi will showcase how quantum-secure protection can be deployed in software on existing embedded platforms — without specialized hardware, silicon redesign, or disruption to current product architectures.
What Quantropi is showcasing at Booth 6808
Quantropi will showcase four integrated, software-defined capabilities that deliver quantum security for IoT and embedded systems:
TRNG — software-defined validated randomness
Every cryptographic key begins with entropy. Quantropi’s TRNG extracts genuine randomness from timing jitter already present in standard processors, from Cortex-M0+-class microcontrollers to high-performance embedded systems. Tested as statistically indistinguishable from ideal randomness across more than 100 million samples, it is architected for NIST SP 800-90B and engineered to meet the new FIPS 140-3 Entropy Source Validation (ESV) requirements for cryptographic key generation. This solution helps organizations in embedded environments achieve cryptographic modernization in software, without new hardware.
Secure Boot — device integrity from power-on
Security starts before an application executes. Quantropi’s Secure Boot delivers quantum-secure firmware validation that runs standalone or integrated with Arm TrustZone and TF-M and extends to secure over-the-air (OTA) updates and cloud-based firmware signing. Constrained devices gain end-to-end protection in lightweight, PSA-compliant software. This capability enables manufacturers to strengthen device integrity throughout the firmware lifecycle without adding hardware complexity.
Secure Network — edge-to-cloud connections
Connected devices rely on secure communication between edge devices, gateways, cloud platforms, and operational technology environments. Quantropi’s Secure Network protects the connections embedded products actually use — from edge to cloud — by integrating IoT-optimized post-quantum cryptography for Mbed TLS and OpenSSL, without replacing existing networking stacks. This solution enables manufacturers to harden edge-to-cloud communications while preserving current software development workflows and embedded networking environments.
Application Security — one crypto-agile SDK
Modern embedded applications need cryptography that can evolve with emerging standards. QiSpace™ for IoT provides post-quantum asymmetric and symmetric cryptographic functions, plus high-quality random numbers, in a crypto-agile design that supports NIST-standardized post-quantum algorithms alongside Quantropi’s lightweight proprietary algorithms. This capability delivers a modular SDK optimized for resource-constrained environments, protecting firmware, application data, and device communications without compromising performance.
Software-only, standards-based, built for today’s embedded ecosystems
Quantropi’s QiSpace™ platform delivers all four solutions entirely in software, supporting major chipset ecosystems including STM32, Renesas, and Microchip, and enabling practical adoption across a wide range of embedded applications. The platform is validated by organizations such as NATO DIANA and Siemens and is backed by 13 granted patents and more than 45 peer-reviewed publications, delivering standards-based quantum-secure cryptography purpose-built for IoT and embedded systems.
QiSpace™ runs on the microcontrollers, chipsets, and embedded platforms manufacturers already deploy, allowing engineering teams to strengthen security while preserving existing product architectures and development investments. For IoT device manufacturers, the message is simple: quantum-secure products on the hardware and infrastructure you already use — no specialized hardware, no silicon redesign, and no disruption to the value your products deliver today.
Frequently asked questions
September 22–24, 2026, at the Anaheim Convention Center, California. Quantropi is at Booth 6808 in Exhibit Hall B.
Quantropi will showcase four live, software-only solutions at Booth 6808: TRNG (software-defined true randomness), Secure Boot (device integrity from power-on with secure OTA updates and cloud-based firmware signing), Secure Network (IoT-optimized PQC for Mbed TLS and OpenSSL), and Application Security (the crypto-agile QiSpace™ for IoT SDK). Together, they show how embedded manufacturers can implement quantum-secure protection in software across the entire device lifecycle.
QiSpace™ for IoT supports major embedded ecosystems including STM32, Renesas, and Microchip with other MCU manufacturers by customer request. Secure Boot works with Arm TrustZone and Trusted Firmware-M (TF-M), while Secure Network integrates with embedded networking frameworks including Mbed TLS and OpenSSL.
Strong cryptography depends on strong, validated entropy. Quantropi’s software-defined TRNG extracts randomness from timing jitter within standard processors, delivering high-quality entropy across a wide range of embedded devices without dedicated hardware random number generators.
Beginning in January 2026, FIPS 140-3 certification requires an Entropy Source Validation (ESV) report that ensures the cryptographic functions are using strong, validated entropy inputs. Quantropi can provide the necessary ESV documentation for our TRNG solution for customers that require it for their FIPS certification.
Yes. Executive Order 14409’s 2030 and 2031 deadlines apply to federal contractors, critical infrastructure operators, and technology suppliers in those supply chains — including IoT and embedded product manufacturers. Moving early turns a compliance requirement into a competitive advantage.
No. QiSpace™ is entirely software-based and runs on existing microcontrollers and infrastructure, from Cortex-M0+ class devices upward, across chipset families including STM32, Renesas, and Microchip. No specialized hardware or silicon redesign is required.
