According to an embodiment, a method includes receiving and providing quantum information as input to a quantum logic gate to produce superpositioned information having a plurality of modal states associated with a modal space. Starting with the superpositioned information, a plurality of modal paths associated with the modal space is produced by recursively filtering, for a predefined number of iterations, the superpositioned information based on a coherence behavior to produce intermediate filtered information that is used as input for a next iteration from the predefined number of iterations. Decoherence dynamics is modelled across the predefined number of iterations of the recursive filtering to determine a stability metric for each modal path from the plurality of modal paths. A modal path is selected from the plurality of modal paths based on the stability metric for that modal path, the modal path representing an encryption key.

A system and method are provided for providing secure communications using a quantum communications system. A clock (e.g., an atomic clock) at a transmitter is synchronized with a clock at a receiver to coordinate seeds from the clocks to respective pattern generators at the receiver and transmitter. The pattern generators determine quantum state bases for the modulation (transmitter) and demodulation (receiver) of information onto quantum states of a quantum beam that is sent from the transmitter to the receiver. Thus, the modulation bases are known to the transmitter and receiver, but not to an eavesdropper. After demodulating the quantum beam, the receiver detects the quantum states of the demodulated beam to retrieve the information. The information can be a cryptographic key sent securely from the transmitter to the receiver. The quantum states can be qumodes with the information encoded in their quadratures, which are detected using homodyne/heterodyne detection.

Each reflection is distributed to a corresponding vault implemented as a cloud storage service, a custodial storage arrangement, a sovereign data facility, or a smart contract repository, each vault operating under a distinct custody and jurisdictional regime. An anomaly-aware multi-factor authentication gate validates retrieval requests. A three-tier verification module supports existence proof, integrity attestation, and forensic recovery modes.

Abstract An ecosystem security platform implemented by a processing system of a computing device enables secure communications within a digital ecosystem. The platform includes a root module that stores device-specific digital objects comprising an eligibility object, a correlation object, and a differentiation object, and selectively modifies the objects using cipher-based, cipherless, or hybrid computational functions. A link module receives a link message from another computing device and decodes encoded instructions using the eligibility object and a modified correlation object. A sequence mapping module extracts a data sequence from a message header portion and processes the sequence using a modified differentiation object to generate a non-repeating transformation vector. A binary transformation module transforms a message payload using the transformation vector, including by XOR operations and/or symmetric encryption, and generates a structured output object containing the transformed payload and original header portion for transmission. The platform thereby provides differentiated, dynamically adaptable, and secure device-to-device communications within the ecosystem.
