Abstract
In one example an apparatus comprises a computer readable memory, hash logic to generate a message hash value based on an input message, signature logic to generate a signature to be transmitted in association with the message, the signature logic to apply a hash-based signature scheme to a private key to generate the signature comprising a public key, and accelerator logic to pre-compute at least one set of inputs to the signature logic. Other examples may be described.
