The Parano Protocol

What is different about the Parano Protocol?

The Parano Protocol uses a combination of four different well known asymmetric algorithms used in a very deliberate technique to leverage existing computational resilience. Novel use of those algorithms introduces a continuous and variable key generation process creating a multi-dimensional computational challenge to resist computational brute force attacks. The maturity and stability of the asymmetric encryption’s schemes in themselves are highly efficient and resilient with their small and reasonable key size when used alone. When combined to provide an ephemeral key wrapping function that continuously ratchets during the message phase, the entire message payload becomes a tremendously secure transmission with an inherent anti-cryptanalysis mechanism.


PPQE – 2018 (Post Quantum-Computing Encryption)

The Parano Protocol is a combination of four existing mature asymmetric algorithms used in a very deliberate way to bring existing computational resilience to affect while introducing variable complexity in key exchange to create a multi-dimensional computational problem to resist brute force attacks.
The well-known asymmetric encryption’s schemes in themselves are highly efficient and resilient relevant their reasonable key size when used alone, however, when combined to provide an ephemeral key wrapping function that ratchets during the message phase, the entire encryption package becomes a tremendously strong protocol with a built-in anti-cryptanalysis mechanism.

The diagram shown here is a simplified example of a single iteration with the encryption portion of the process.
Each iteration in the message exchange uses key meta data from the previous package to derive the next package encryption function making the data stream encrypted and the stream key dynamic.



This is a more robust approach to securing a data exchange than using one or two locks and sets of keys. Simply put, when using a static linear congruential generator to derive the cryptographic register shifting or alphanumeric substitutions if you break the foundational master key or session exchange keys, you can decrypt any message that was used with that master key. With Parano, key usage is fluid and highly serialized and dependent on previous key iterations making the cryptographic register shifting dynamic.



SWANTRY
SAFE. SECURE. SMART.
In the digital world children might easily be exposed to explicit content or contacted by strangers. Spending too much time on the smartphone instead of doing homework, playing with friends outdoors and having regular bedtimes can have negative impacts on the child's development. Children might also become a victim to cyberbullying, or thoughtlessly participate in cyberbullying themselves.
