Post Quantum Cryptography (PQC) algorithms Support in Dell iDRAC.

[myoscodeRahul]

Hi Team,

I have these 2 requirement to test in R470 server or R570,

i tested it in R470 and found not be supported,

BMC shall support NIST selected Post Quantum Cryptography (PQC) algorithms.
BMC shall support signature algorithm and security lengths specified in “NIST IR 8547 ipd Transition to Post-Quantum Cryptography Standards” during the PQC migration.

Can you please tell are these requirement supported? Or In which server it will be supported and what is the timeline for this support.

And if it is supported can you give some hint on how to test it, I checked from Github Copilot and all other means to find security policy in iDRAC and then tested using Redfish tool, it seems it is not supported

Hi @myoscodeRahul

NIST IR 8547 is currently not supported in iDRAC10 but there are plans to add support in the future but i have no ETA on when. But once support is added it will be documented in iDRAC release notes.

Thanks
