Abstract
In one example an apparatus comprises a computer readable memory, a signature logic to generate a signature to be transmitted in association with a message, the signature logic to apply a hash-based signature scheme to the message using a private key to generate the signature comprising a public key, or a verification logic to verify a signature received in association with the message, the verification logic to apply the hash-based signature scheme to verify the signature using the public key, and an accelerator logic to apply a structured order to at least one set of inputs to the hash-based signature scheme. Other examples may be described.
