A zero-trust encrypted communications platform. Post-quantum hybrid cryptography, mesh-radio routing, and chain-of-custody audit on every packet. Pre-alpha running in the lab today.
Cipher OS replaces legacy encrypted comms stacks with a modern, zero-trust architecture. Every packet is authenticated, forward-secret, and auditable. Building in Wales under UK-sovereign chain of custody.
ML-KEM-1024 paired with X25519. Survives quantum adversaries; compatible with classical key exchange today.
Self-healing mesh between nodes. No fixed infrastructure. Traffic finds a path even when cells and satellites fail.
Every packet writes an immutable audit record. Commanders retain defensible proof of transmission origin and handling.
One protocol for all three. Priority-tagged traffic with deterministic latency targets under load.
Cipher Terminal, STIG-hardened Linux, allied tactical kits. One key-management plane across every endpoint.
QR-based first-trust establishment. No cloud. No external PKI. Operator-owned root of trust on every node.
The four-phase Cipher OS handshake and packet delivery. Operators never think about any of this — it happens in the background every time the green light blinks on a Cipher Terminal.
Cipher OS terminates encryption on-device. Middle-boxes see ciphertext only. Every delivery writes to an append-only local ledger that can be attested to a programme auditor later.
