Deterministic Quantum-Resilient Cryptographic Operations (DQCO)

This foundational DSOS technical publication establishes Deterministic Quantum‑Resilient Cryptographic Operations (DQCO) as the first formal operational discipline for post‑quantum cryptography. Unlike algorithm‑only PQC transition models, DQCO defines a complete governance framework for quantum‑resilient execution, including deterministic entropy management, runtime‑verified cryptographic operations, governed algorithm migration, and auditable execution integrity. Architected across the Aurora Runtime, Neural‑Mesh Substrate, PQC Orchestration Layer, Universal Bridge, and DQCO Verification Module, this work introduces the Determinism Axiom, the DQCO 7‑tuple formal model, and the Runtime Injection Adversary class. DQCO provides the missing operational standard for PQC adoption and asserts new intellectual territory in quantum‑resilient system design.
