Technology Architecture
How QIST's eight technology programs compose into a post-quantum trust stack across security, connectivity, runtime, and domain control layers.
QIST Technology Portfolio
You can think of the portfolio in three broad bands:
Security & Trust Layer
- QSIG (Quantum Secure Interoperable Grid) — Multi-chain security and interoperability fabric
- QNSP (Quantum-Native Security Platform) — security platform for AI, documents, storage, and secrets
- Tunnel (Quantum-Safe Connectivity Fabric (QSCF)) — quantum-safe connectivity fabric for sovereign, verifiable networks
Autonomy, OS & Intelligence Layer
- AIOS — Autonomous interoperable OS for agent-based workloads
- DDIP Platform — Deterministic development intelligence for governed engineering teams
Domain & Vertical Control Planes
- IACC (Industrial Autonomous Command Cloud) — industrial autonomy command cloud for critical infrastructure
- WAHH — blockchain multi-rails infrastructure for modern finance
- Profy (Modern OS for Finance & Compliance) — operating system for finance and compliance-heavy SMBs

Shared Architectural Doctrine
Across all technology programs, QIST emphasizes:
- Quantum-aware and post-quantum security — Architectures are designed or road-mapped around NIST-standardized PQC families (e.g. Kyber, Dilithium, SPHINCS+, Classic McEliece) and hybrid deployment paths for long-lived secrets and infrastructure.
- Zero-trust, policy-driven operation — Every program assumes adversarial environments and enforces policy-as-code for access, execution, and change management.
- Deterministic telemetry and governance — Systems emit structured, verifiable events suitable for audit, simulation, and regulator-grade evidence.
- Agent- and event-native design — Architectures treat agents, events, and workflows as first-class primitives across OS, development, industrial, and financial domains.
- Composable adoption — Each stack can be adopted independently or as part of a unified post-quantum trust stack, depending on sector, risk posture, and regulatory constraints.
