Post-quantum transition made easier with Evertrust PKI integration with Thales Luna HSM v7.9

Evertrust confirms native compatibility with Thales Luna HSM v7.9 to accelerate post-quantum transition

Evertrust announces native compatibility of its Horizon platform with Thales' new Luna HSM firmware v7.9, which integrates NIST-approved post-quantum algorithms ML-KEM and ML-DSA for the first time in production.

This integration enables organizations to deploy quantum-resistant cryptography today while maintaining sovereign control over their critical PKI infrastructure.

Immediate response to cryptographic challenges

This compatibility arrives at a critical moment when organizations must simultaneously manage:

• Imminent quantum threats

  Harvest-Now, Decrypt-Later attacks are already happening, with experts predicting quantum computers will threaten current cryptography by 2030-2035.

• Dramatic certificate lifespan reductions

  With SSL/TLS certificates limited to 47 days by 2029, automation becomes essential.

• Need for crypto-agility

  Organizations must be able to rapidly migrate to new algorithms without service interruption.

Production-ready solution

Through this integration, Evertrust customers benefit from:

• Native post-quantum algorithm support

  with ML-KEM (FIPS 203) and ML-DSA (FIPS 204) directly integrated into Luna HSM v7.9 firmware.

• Hybrid cryptography

  combining classical and post-quantum algorithms for smooth transition.

• Automated management

  of post-quantum certificates through the Horizon platform, eliminating manual deployment complexity.

• Sovereign architecture

  with FIPS 140-3 Level 3 certified HSMs and 100% European solutions.

Evertrust's Horizon platform was already compatible with Thales Luna HSMs via PKCS#11, and this new firmware version now enables post-quantum cryptography deployment in production with the same ease of use.

A European trust ecosystem

This compatibility reinforces our commitment to European digital sovereignty by combining:

• Evertrust's European expertise in certificate lifecycle management

• Thales' world-leading hardware security technology

• NIST-standardized post-quantum algorithms

We provide European organizations with a complete, tested, and ready solution for tomorrow's cryptographic challenges while maintaining sovereign control over their critical infrastructure.

Partner ecosystem validation

As stated by Blair Canavan, Director of Alliances - PKI and PQC Portfolio of Partners at Thales: "With Luna HSM v7.9, we're not just embedding NIST-standardized PQC algorithms into our HSMs – we're already taking it into production with the backing of a global partner ecosystem."

This cross-validation by the Thales ecosystem confirms that our solutions are ready to support organizations in their post-quantum transition today.
