Application: Quantum resistant ledger for secure communications (Patent ID: US20240048369A1)
Lockheed Martin Corp. has developed a method and system for secure data communication using a Quantum Resistant Ledger (QRL). The method involves identifying data, determining a security level, selecting an encryption scheme, applying the encryption using QRL, and transmitting the encrypted data to another network component. The system utilizes blockchain technology with hash-based signatures to ensure secure transactions and generate public/private key pairs for encryption.
The patent claims outline the specific operations of the first network component, including the generation of a single public key, securing transaction signatures, and role-based validation rules for network components. The encryption schemes can be classical, post-quantum, or distributed ledger technology, with security levels ranging from 80 to 256 bits. The method and system provide a comprehensive approach to data security, leveraging QRL and blockchain technology to protect sensitive information during communication between network components.
