Key Points

The aim is to evaluate the effectiveness of AEGIS, a post-quantum cyber-defense system against quantum computing threats.
Developed an autonomous nine-layer cyber-defense system based on post-quantum standards.
Conducted empirical evaluations including 1,000 red-team scenarios and real-world incidents to assess performance.
Implemented a cryptographically chained digital twin and adaptive defenses across various system elements.
Achieved 100% success in 611 unit tests validated.
Neutralized 941 of 1,000 red-team scenarios, highlighting strong defensive capabilities.
Recorded zero security breaches during 3,062 real-world incidents with a mean response latency of 20.41ms.

Abstract

The emergence of quantum computing poses an existential threat to current public-key cryptographic infrastructure. We present AEGIS, an autonomous nine-layer post-quantum cyber-defense system designed to operate without human intervention. AEGIS implements the three NIST post-quantum standards (FIPS 203, 204, and 205), integrates a cryptographically chained Digital Twin with sub-100ms synchronization, applies Adaptive Moving Target Defense across ports, routes, tokens, and system fingerprint, and incorporates collective intelligence sharing across installations. Empirical evaluation demonstrates: 611 unit tests passing at 100%, 941 of 1,000 red-team scenarios neutralized, zero security breaches across 3,062 real-world incidents, and a mean response latency of 20.41ms.
