Information-Theoretically Secure
Anonymous Communication

Building a new class of quantum-safe, metadata-silent communication infrastructure. No computational assumptions. No trusted third parties.

The Problem

Existing secure messaging systems (Tor, VPNs, enterprise messengers):

  • Leak metadata (traffic analysis, timing, endpoints)
  • Rely on computational security (broken by quantum adversaries)
  • Do not provide provable sender anonymity

DC-Nets solve this in theory, but are unusable at scale due to O(N²) key overhead.

Our Solution

A production-ready DC-Net architecture with:

  • Information-theoretic sender & receiver anonymity
  • Sparse Harary graph topology → O(N) key complexity
  • Resistance to global passive adversaries
  • Quantum-safe by construction
  • Accountability via blame protocol (anti-jamming)
  • Mobile-feasible Pod architecture

Scalability Proof

Cryptographic overhead comparison: Standard DC-Net vs. Sparse Harary Topology

Standard DC-Net

O(N²)

Complete graph topology requires N(N-1)/2 key exchanges

At N=1000: 499,500 keys

Sparse Harary

O(N·c)

Minimal (c+1)-connected graph requires ⌈N(c+1)/2⌉ key exchanges

At N=1000: 25,500 keys
Reduction at Scale
94.9%
fewer key exchanges required

Why This Is Unique

First scalable, fully anonymous, information-theoretically secure communication system

No Trusted Third Party

Security doesn't depend on any central authority or server

No Computational Assumptions
