Explore cipher+The ATOFIA platform began by reimagining cryptography from the ground up, creating a multi-patented, clean-sheet architecture that unifies identity, authentication, and encryption into a single, self-contained design—free from outdated assumptions.
The platform features a modular architecture built on three foundational layers, each integrating four core components.
4 Modules
The four modules: trusted setup, witness, encryption, and decryption.
4 Transformation Engines
Each engine applies a distinct entropy function across the encryption and decryption process.
4 Core Pillars
The four pillars deliver the platform's defining security advancements.
A multi-level ciphertext with identity, authentication, and encryption built inside. Computation is shared 50/50, creating a non-interactive Proof of Work with no keys, no signatures, no PKI.

8 Patents. 24 Months. We applied first-principles engineering to 40 years of digital debt. We didn't patch legacy cryptography; we replaced it with a new primitive.
Tesla didn't improve the internal
combustion engine, they replaced it.
Our patented method does the same
for cryptography.
Tesla cut drivetrain parts 90+%
(ICE: 200+ → EV: 17-20).
We shrink cryptography "moving parts"
and the blast radius 90+%.

A modern and agile framework for constructing ciphertext, built on four pillars of innovation
A patented and self-contained directory structure that ensures the integrity and authenticity of all cryptographic and security protocols.
Device identifiers and user attributes autonomously combine to create a unique single user profile, which is encrypted and presented as a binary fingerprint.
Self-governing devices autonomously manage and validate the multi-source verification process of their binary fingerprint, eliminating the need for external trust services.
The binary fingerprint of the sender and each recipient is embedded in the file.
Adaptive Zero Trust Security at file level.
In this framework, a dual posture is adopted, utilizing separate verification processes for encryption and decryption.
Real-time contextual awareness determines the self-authentication posture.
A deliberate pivot in design from security based on computational hardness to principles rooted in information-theoretic security.
An embedded generative module within the application’s cryptographic workflow, generating randomized value sets on demand when invoked by the encryption module, which the transformation engines apply to perform encryption and decryption.
| Aspect | Traditional Witness | ATOFIA Witness |
|---|---|---|
| Roles | Passive - used to prove or validate | Active - purely generative, produces value sets |
| Function | Provides evidence for a proof | Creates random, ephemeral sets without awareness of use |
| Control | Bound to proof system, governs validation | No control over downstream application or usage |
| Knowledge | YES - Requires awareness of hidden input/context | NO - Blind to meaning, use, and plaintext |
| Computation | Mathematical, algorithmic, deterministic | Non-deterministic, non-computable, ephemeral random generation |
| Usage | Referenced only in proof construction | Applied equally by sender and recipient, each running proofs on generated value sets |
| Innovation | Verification primitive | Generative primitive — a new category in cryptography |
| Impact | Confirms hidden input | Drives architecture forward, powering engines + proofs |
Originally conceived and patented for advanced cryptographic innovation, the platform's modular architecture revealed capabilities extending beyond its initial domain. Its core modules enable secure, scalable solutions across domains—including non-human identity and artificial intelligence—applying different modules as needed.
