Six layers.
One chain of trust.
OmniCloak moves the root of trust below the operating system, into silicon and firmware. Each layer in the chain is independently verifiable and cryptographically bound to the layers beneath it.
An identity that cannot be extracted, copied, or spoofed.
Conventional hardware security relies on keys stored in secure enclaves or TPM chips. A sufficiently capable attacker can extract a stored key. OmniCloak eliminates this attack surface entirely by deriving device identity from the silicon itself — not from a value stored anywhere on the device.
Physical Unclonable Function (PUF)
Manufacturing variation in the silicon produces a response pattern that is unique to each chip and cannot be replicated. The device identity is derived from this pattern at runtime — it is never stored.
No extractable root key
Because the identity is derived rather than stored, there is no key to extract. Physical access to the device does not yield the cryptographic identity.
Binding to the attestation chain
The PUF-derived identity anchors the entire attestation chain. Every higher layer's integrity proof is cryptographically bound to this hardware root.
Distinct from Apple Secure Enclave and Samsung Knox
Those are credible technologies solving a different problem at a different layer. OmniCloak's PUF-based identity operates below the enclave — it is the root that an enclave would need to trust.
Continuous verification, not just a boot-time check.
Most secure boot implementations verify firmware integrity once, at startup. If firmware is modified after boot — or if the verification itself is compromised — the device has no way to detect it. OmniCloak's firmware layer verifies its own integrity continuously during operation.
Memory-safe Rust implementation
The firmware layer is written in Rust, eliminating entire classes of memory corruption vulnerabilities that have historically been the primary vector for firmware-level attacks.
Continuous integrity verification
Integrity checks run continuously during operation, not only at boot. Tampering is detected in real time and triggers an immediate attestation failure.
Tamper response
A detected integrity violation immediately revokes the device's attestation status, denying it network access and flagging it for administrator review.
Persistence across OS reinstalls
Because the firmware layer sits below the OS, its integrity guarantees survive OS reinstalls, factory resets, and storage wipes.
Peripheral isolation enforced at the silicon level.
Application sandboxing in conventional operating systems is enforced by the OS itself. A compromised OS can bypass its own sandboxing. OmniCloak enforces peripheral isolation at the silicon level, so even a fully compromised OS cannot grant an application access to hardware it was not explicitly permitted to use.
Silicon-level peripheral isolation
Access to camera, microphone, storage, and network interfaces is controlled by hardware policy, not OS policy. The OS cannot override it.
Strict application sandboxing
Applications run in isolated execution environments. A compromised application cannot escalate privileges or access resources outside its sandbox.
Kernel integrity monitoring
Kernel modifications are detected and reported to the attestation layer. A tampered kernel triggers an attestation failure before any sensitive operation proceeds.
Minimal attack surface
The OS is stripped to the minimum required for the device's intended function. Unused services, drivers, and interfaces are removed, not disabled.
Cryptographic proof of identity and integrity before every sensitive operation.
Attestation is the mechanism by which a device proves to a relying party that it is the device it claims to be and that its firmware and OS are in a known-good state. OmniCloak implements attestation using SPDM, a standards-based protocol developed for exactly this purpose.
SPDM (Security Protocol and Data Model)
SPDM is a DMTF standard for authenticating firmware and hardware components. Using a standards-based protocol means attestation results are independently verifiable by third parties.
Pre-operation gating
Sensitive operations — accessing protected data, establishing network connections, authenticating to services — are gated on a current, valid attestation result. A stale or failed attestation blocks the operation.
Continuous re-attestation
Attestation is not a one-time enrollment check. Devices re-attest continuously, and any change in the integrity measurement triggers an immediate status update.
Third-party verifiability
Because SPDM is a published standard, attestation results can be verified by the customer's own infrastructure — not just by OmniCloak's servers.
Access denied before data moves — not flagged after.
Conventional zero-trust architectures grant provisional network access while verification is in progress, then revoke it if the device fails. OmniCloak inverts this: network access is denied by default and granted only after attestation passes. A device that fails its integrity checks never touches the network.
Attestation-conditional network access
Network interfaces are disabled at the hardware level until the device passes attestation. There is no provisional access window.
Starlink Direct-to-Cell satellite support
Both the Secure Laptop and Secure Smartphone support Starlink Direct-to-Cell connectivity, enabling secure operation in areas with limited or no terrestrial infrastructure.
Conventional WiFi compatibility
Full compatibility with standard WiFi infrastructure. The attestation-conditional access model applies equally to satellite and terrestrial connections.
Isolation on attestation failure
A device that fails attestation mid-session is immediately isolated from the network. The isolation is enforced at the hardware level and cannot be overridden by software.
CyberCloak: fleet-wide behavioral monitoring for deployed devices.
Device-level controls address known threat patterns. CyberCloak addresses the unknown — behavioral anomalies that indicate compromise without matching any known signature. By monitoring patterns across the entire fleet, CyberCloak surfaces threats that would be invisible on any single device.
Fleet-wide behavioral baseline
CyberCloak establishes a behavioral baseline across all enrolled devices. Deviations from the baseline — in timing, access patterns, or resource usage — are flagged for review.
AI-driven anomaly detection
Machine learning models trained on fleet-wide data identify anomalies that rule-based systems miss. The models improve continuously as the fleet grows.
Enterprise-grade monitoring dashboard
Administrators have full visibility into fleet health, attestation status, and anomaly alerts through the CyberCloak management interface.
Continuous updates
The CyberCloak subscription delivers continuous firmware updates, threat intelligence, and model improvements. Devices stay current without manual intervention.
The architecture your adversaries cannot circumvent.
OmniCloak is in active pre-alpha hardware development. The architecture is fully specified and the roadmap moves through a six-month pre-alpha phase toward an initial deployment milestone.
