Q-Trust Plane
Cryptographic Zero-Trust Control Plane for Hybrid Infrastructure

Govern CI/CD, IaC, Kubernetes, Web3, and MLOps with cryptographic proof

Authorization Fragmentation Crisis

Modern infrastructure spans multiple domains, each with its own authorization system:

The Result

• No unified governance across domains
• Incomplete audit trails scattered across systems
• No cryptographic proof of authorization decisions
• Compliance nightmares with manual evidence collection
• Security gaps from inconsistent policy enforcement

Q-Trust Plane: One Control Plane for Everything

One Policy Language (QPL)
Write policies once, enforce everywhere. Declarative, domain-agnostic syntax.

Cryptographic Grants
Every authorization produces a time-bound, cryptographically signed grant.

Complete Audit Trail
Every decision, every action, every piece of evidence—immutably recorded.

Zero-Trust by Design
No action succeeds without explicit proof. Evidence-based policy evaluation.

1. Zero-Trust by Design

Every action requires cryptographic proof. No implicit trust, no ambient authority.

2. One Policy Language

QPL governs all domains. Write once, enforce everywhere.

3. Hybrid Infrastructure

Seamlessly govern on-chain and off-chain operations with unified policies.

4. Cryptographic Grants

Time-bound, capability-based authorization with cryptographic signatures.

5. Complete Audit Trail

Every decision, every action, every piece of evidence—immutably recorded and verifiable.

6. Real-Time Enforcement

Policy evaluation in milliseconds. Admission control, pre-deployment checks, runtime governance.

Web3 Governance

Control smart contract deployments with cryptographic proof. Verify audits, enforce gas limits, maintain complete on-chain audit trails.

Kubernetes Admission

Real-time policy enforcement at the admission webhook level. Prevent privileged pods, enforce resource limits, validate security contexts.

Terraform Governance

Govern infrastructure-as-code with approval workflows. Protect production, enforce change windows, require attestations.

MLOps Control

Govern model deployments and training pipelines. Verify data provenance, enforce compute limits, audit model lineage.

CI/CD Pipeline Security

Zero-trust CI/CD with cryptographic grants. Control deployments, verify artifacts, enforce approval gates across GitHub and GitLab.

Core Components

Policy Service (Rust)
QPL parser, evaluator, and policy storage

Grants Service (Rust)
Cryptographic grant issuance and verification

Evidence Service (Rust)
Evidence collection, verification, and storage

Audit Service (Rust)
Immutable audit trail with cryptographic signatures

Anchor Service (Rust)
Blockchain anchoring with Merkle tree batching

Agents (Rust, TypeScript)
Domain-specific: Web3, K8s, Terraform, MLOps, CI/CD

Infrastructure

• PostgreSQL (metadata)
• Redis (cache)
• NATS (events)
• Vault (secrets)
• Optional: Ethereum/Polygon (anchoring)
