QS7001 Passes EAL5+ Technical Evaluation
All physical and functional security tests on QS7001 V1, run by ANSSI-licensed lab SERMA Safety & Security, returned PASS, including the penetration test campaign and fault-injection and side-channel testing.
-
Certification Enters Final Audit Phase
Site audits are scheduled for January 2027, covering a new scope for the Meyreuil, France site including its clean room plus renewal audits of two partner sites; the evaluation report then goes to ANSSI.
-
Formal Certificate Targeted for 2027
The V2 full post-quantum evaluation is expected in January 2027 and formal ANSSI certification is targeted for 2027, so the certificate is not yet issued.

42 Prospects Evaluating Quantum Chips
As of September 30, 2026, 42 prospective customers and partners were evaluating QS7001 and QVault TPM, and VaultIC409 and QVault TPM will inherit the same hardware certification level.
Analysis · WQEY · Technology
The QS7001 post-quantum secure element cleared every physical and functional security test at the EAL5+ level, one of the toughest assurance tiers for secure hardware. That matters commercially because customers can now design QS7001, VaultIC409 and QVault TPM into products ahead of the formal certificate, and 42 prospective customers and partners were already evaluating the chips as of September 30, 2026. The remaining risk is timing: site audits are scheduled for January 2027 and the ANSSI certificate is only targeted for 2027, so revenue from certified designs still depends on passing those audits.
