Entropy as a Defense Layer

High Entropy Security (HES) Zero-Trust technologies are built around one principle: increase entropy to decrease vulnerability.

By combining high-entropy sources, like physically unclonable functions (PUFs), with ternary computing, challenge-response pairs, and ephemeral keys, HES replaces static key storage and deterministic communication with dynamic, noise-tolerant, zero-trust cryptographic protocols.

Novel Solutions Based on Novel Innovations

Funded by the U.S. Department of Defense, our solutions are the result of 10 years of research and innovation.

Ephemeral, On-Demand Keys

Keys are never stored, only generated in real time through challenge–response mechanisms. Even under 45% noise injection, our systems regenerate error-free cryptographic keys without heavy correction schemes or AI.
This means devices remain operational and secure even in heavily jammed environments.

High-Entropy Roots of Trust

Each terminal device, sensor, or identity factor derives from an unclonable physical or digital source, creating entropy-rich cryptographic tables unique to each user or system.
No two devices generate the same keys, even under identical inputs, making replication or prediction statistically impossible.

Zero-Trust, Zero-Knowledge Architecture

Multi-factor authentication happens concurrently in a zero-knowledge format, proving identity or key ownership without revealing the actual key, enhancing security from side-channel analysis and insider attacks.

Quantum-Resistant Algorithms

All HES cryptographic layers are post-quantum ready, integrating standardized NIST PQC schemes like CRYSTALS-Dilithium and Kyber to protect communications, transactions, and data across networks of every trust level.
