Naoris Protocol - Sub Zero Layer - Securing the Entire Blockchain Stack

Naoris: Sub-Zero Infrastructure and a Full Layer 1

Built to Secure All Layers

Built to Secure All Layers

Naoris is designed as a Sub-Zero Layer, an infrastructure layer beneath traditional L1s and L2s, securing trust across any network, device, or application. It acts as the trust mesh for the entire decentralized internet.

Build On It, or Secure What You Build

Build On It, or Secure What You Build

Whether you're launching decentralized apps, connecting IoT devices, or securing multi-chain systems, Naoris gives you both the base layer and the battlefield shield.

  • Build directly on Naoris
  • Or integrate it to secure existing L1s, L2s, and dApps
But It's Also a Layer 1

But It's Also a Layer 1

Naoris isn't just a security layer, it's also a sovereign blockchain.With its own consensus mechanism, validator economy, and smart contract layer, it functions as a fully capable Layer 1 chain.

$NAORIS: The On Chain Proof of Trust Token

  • The native utility token of Naoris Protocol, powering the Decentralized Proof-of-Security (dPoSec) consensus mesh.

  • Each bonded token represents participation in a trust economy: devices validate each other in real time, with outcomes anchored on-chain.

  • Validators (TrustNodes) earn $NAORIS rewards by performing millisecond integrity attestations.

  • Validations are tracked and shared immutably across networks, promoting ecosystem-wide transparency.

  • Security: Bond $NAORIS into nodes, securing infrastructure while earning yield.

  • Validation: Tokens flow as rewards from nodes that confirm peers' safe behavior.

  • Governance: Influence future protocol upgrades tied to AI, PQ cryptography, and economic parameters.

  • Turns every device into a security validator, scaling trust through decentralized validation instead of centralized audits.

  • Enables instant, on-chain proof of compliance and device integrity.

  • Promotes active participation via stakeholders, white-hats, and infrastructure providers

The Hidden Flaw in Web3 Security

99% of digital infrastructure, even in Web3, still depends on fragile, centralized systems.

Decentralization in Name Only

Decentralization in Name Only

dApps, L1s, and bridges often rely on centralized APIs, servers, or multisig setups.Most “Web3” stacks are still built on legacy Web2 infrastructure, lacking real-time trust guarantees.

Real-World Consequences

Real-World Consequences

Major breaches (Ronin, Wormhole, Harmony) stemmed from single point failures like stolen keys or validator compromises.

IoT Growth = Exponential Risk

IoT Growth = Exponential Risk

As DePINs (decentralized physical infrastructure networks) scale, billions of sensors, routers, drones, and endpoints join the Web3 mesh.These devices are cheap, unverified, and easily cloned or hijacked.

A single rogue endpoint can poison an entire DePIN's trust signal, draining token rewards or spoofing data integrity.

The Coming Quantum Catastrophe - Why Q Day Matters

Q-Day is the moment quantum computers can break today’s public-key cryptography, and it’s not theoretical.

The Timeline:

Timeline illustration
  • NIST, NSA, and NATO estimate 2 - 5 years until scalable quantum attacks.
  • But harvest-now-decrypt-later attacks have already begun, capturing encrypted data to break later.

Q.Day is approaching

What's at Risk:

Risk illustration
  • RSA (used in HTTPS, email, banking)
  • ECDSA / secp256k1 (used by Bitcoin, Ethereum, most L1s)
  • Digital signatures, multisigs, smart contract deployment proofs

Every encrypted message, transaction, or key signed today using RSA/ECDSA may be retroactively broken the moment Q-Day arrives.

What We've Already Proven, On-Chain & At Scale

1M+

1M+ Security Nodes onboarded into the dPoSec mesh, each continuously broadcasting cryptographic proofs of integrity

1.9M+

1.9M+ DePIN endpoints converted into Sentinel-mode TrustNodes, from routers and IoT boards to browser nodes and containers

Zero-day

Zero-day vulnerabilities detected by community stakers before traditional scanners, proving real-time Swarm AI + staking utility

99.9%

99.9% anomaly detection accuracy across live runtime states, not just simulated attack models

100k+

100K+ Post-Quantum Transactions executed across the Sub-Zero L1 since Jan 31, 2025, validating real-world throughput at up to 70,000 TPS, fully secured by Dilithium-5 signatures

FAQ

Naoris Protocol

Naoris is the first Sub-Zero Layer 1 blockchain designed for real-time, decentralized cybersecurity, using post-quantum cryptography, Swarm AI, and a novel dPoSec™ consensus to protect devices, smart contracts, and infrastructure from the ground up.

Naoris is a sovereign Layer 1 chain with smart contract capabilities, while also acting as a Sub-Zero trust layer beneath other L1s, L2s, and dApps. You can build directly on it, or plug it in to secure what you've already built.

It means Naoris operates below the stack, securing validators, devices, and code execution before it interacts with Layer 1s, bridges, or wallets.
It's not just decentralized infrastructure. It's decentralized trust.

Decentralized Proof of Security, a next-gen consensus where devices validate each other's integrity in milliseconds.
It replaces slow audits and blind trust with live, on-chain trust scores.

A decentralized, collaborative AI that learns from millions of nodes and runtime behaviors across the network.
Instead of using static detection rules, Swarm AI detects novel threats and triggers real-time defenses.

Every transaction hash uses NIST PQC approved algorithms and resistant to quantum attacks.
You don't need to migrate. You're already future-proof.

Yes. With a lightweight agent or SDK, you can turn:

  • A smart contract → into a self-monitoring node
  • A router or IoT sensor → into a TrustNode
  • A wallet → into a real-time compliance oracle

Any.
Naoris exports trust proofs to EVM, Cosmos, Move and more, making it ideal for multichain bridges, dApps, DePINs, and DeFi protocols.

  • Validator key theft (e.g., Ronin, Harmony)
  • Reentrancy & flash loan exploits
  • Fake or hijacked DePIN devices
  • Supply chain and firmware attacks
  • Pre-Q Day quantum threats
  • Cross-chain bridge manipulation
  • Built-in security & trust mesh
  • Post-quantum, sovereign Layer 1
  • Tokenized security economy with dPoSec rewards
  • Real-time Swarm AI protection
  • Seamless DePIN + cross-chain use case support
  • Future-proofed infrastructure
