AETHERION: A Security Architecture for Local-First Software

📄 9 pages🕐 Updated 2026-08-04

Local-first delivery is the cheapest way to ship software and the hardest to protect. AETHERION is the four-layer composition that makes it commercially survivable — entitlement without a server, proprietary code on hardware you do not control, user data you are liable for but cannot reach, and collaboration that does not drag you back into hosting. A reference architecture, with a 650,000-line production system as the proof.

FORTRESS v2: Data Protection Beyond the Managed Runtime

📄 9 pages🕐 Updated 2026-08-04

The second-generation FORTRESS architecture. Cryptographic operations moved out of the managed runtime into a native boundary, memory-resident secrets held in guarded regions with a microsecond exposure window, active deception against memory acquisition, and anti-instrumentation integrated into the key-derivation path itself. Includes an explicit correction to a claim made in the v1 specification.

VEIL: Code Integrity on Untrusted Hosts

📄 9 pages🕐 Updated 2026-08-04

How a proprietary cognitive system is delivered onto hardware the operator fully controls without handing over its internals. Sealed-build transformation, binary-level capability removal that anyone can verify independently, disclosure boundaries, and fail-closed behaviour — with an explicit account of what client-side integrity can and cannot claim.

SERAPHUM: A Sovereign Post-Quantum Sealing Layer

📄 10 pages🕐 Updated 2026-08-04

The lattice cryptography beneath Genesis. A Category 1 LWE key-encapsulation mechanism that seals every perpetual license without a server in the trust path, and a Category 5 ML-KEM-1024 / ML-DSA-87 stack — implemented from specification, validated byte-for-byte against NIST vectors, with an explicit account of what SERAPHUM does not protect against.

AETHER: A Sovereign Post-Quantum Communication Protocol

📄 9 pages🕐 Updated 2026-07-03

The end-to-end protocol behind AETHER — hybrid post-quantum encryption AND authentication, a continuous PQC double ratchet, a blind relay, and sovereign group calls. Written to be verified, including an explicit account of what AETHER does not protect against.
