MASQUARAIDE: Manifold-Based Spatial Quantum-Resistant Adaptive Integrated Defensive Environment — A Theoretical Quantum-Safe Defensive Intelligence Platform

This paper presents a theoretical prototype and conceptual architecture. All named systems — MASQUARAIDE, MIMIC, DefiAnt, QUICC, BedRock, CROC, Hyperion, Jonah, LAiRenAris, qXploit, ZaiX, and related modules — are original theoretical constructs developed by Amy Yen. References to established technologies (Grover’s algorithm, Shor’s algorithm, NIST PQC standards, Metasploit, PennyLane, Qiskit, Hemi Network, Ethereum) are used for contextual grounding only. CROC-512, Reccek, and RAINBOW (archival) are project-local experimental constructs; RAINBOW has been demoted from primary use due to published key-recovery attacks. No proprietary, classified, or externally validated production systems are described. APA Citation: Yen, A. (2026).
