Quantum-resistant symmetric encryption
Zero-knowledge architecture
Open-source ready
Built for the Post-Quantum Era — AES-256-GCM combined with PBKDF2 (310,000 iterations) is considered quantum-resistant because symmetric encryption only suffers a quadratic speedup from Grover's algorithm — effectively reducing 256-bit security to 128-bit, which remains computationally infeasible to break.
