AMA Cryptography v1.0: Cryptographic Protection System

[Steel-SecAdv-LLC]

AMA Cryptography v1.0 is an experimental Post-Quantum Cryptographic Protection System. A first release experimental hybrid Ed25519 + ML-DSA-65 (Dilithium) framework for quantum-resistant integrity protection. This project represents a human/AI collaborative construct; conceived and directed by Steel Security Advisors LLC and Andrew E. A., with 99%+ of implementation constructed by AI Co-Architects.

Status: Research-grade | Community-tested | NOT externally audited

Post-Quantum Cryptography

    - ML-DSA-65 (NIST FIPS 204) - ~192-bit quantum security
    - Kyber-1024 (NIST FIPS 203) - Quantum-resistant KEM
    - SPHINCS+-256f - Stateless hash-based signatures
    - Hybrid Signatures - Ed25519 + ML-DSA-65 combined
    - NIST KAT Validated - Complete Known Answer Test coverage

3R Runtime Security Monitoring

    - Resonance - FFT-based frequency-domain anomaly detection
    - Recursion - Multi-scale hierarchical pattern analysis
    - Refactoring - Code complexity metrics for security review
    - Less than 2% performance overhead

Multi-Language Architecture

    - C - liboqs bindings, 5 verified constant-time functions
    - Cython - 18-37x speedup for mathematical operations
    - Python - Algorithm-agnostic API for rapid development

Key Management

    - HD key derivation (BIP32-compliant)
    - Zero-downtime key rotation
    - Encrypted storage at rest
    - HSM/TPM ready

Performance

    - Ed25519 Sign: 13,418 ops/sec
    - ML-DSA-65 Sign: 7,104 ops/sec
    - ML-DSA-65 Verify: 15,406 ops/sec
    - SHA3-256: 1,037,993 ops/sec

Quality

    - 24 test files, 753+ tests
    - 32 CI checks with security scanning 3 workflows
    - Cross-platform: Linux, macOS, Windows, ARM64
