Zero trust · Cryptographically auditable · Post-quantum roadmap

Security and compliance
built for critical infrastructure.

AmpVerve connects to EV fleets, building heating systems, and grid assets. Security is not a feature we add. It is the architecture everything else is built on. Zero trust, cryptographically auditable, and designed to meet the regulatory frameworks that govern the sectors we operate in.

Four pillars.
Every deployment.

🔒
Zero Trust Architecture
No implicit trust between any component. Every request authenticated, authorised, and encrypted regardless of network origin. TLS 1.3 minimum. mTLS for all service-to-service communication. Hardware security modules for key management.
📋
Cryptographic Audit Trail
A SHA-256 hash-chain links every dispatch decision, market instruction, constraint check, and settlement event. Tamper-evident by design: a cryptographically verifiable chain of evidence built to support FOI, clinical governance, and regulatory requirements.
Post-Quantum Roadmap
Quantum computers pose a threat to current cryptographic standards on a 10–15 year horizon. AmpVerve is adopting NIST-selected post-quantum algorithms for key exchange and digital signatures, so data protected today is designed to remain secure against future compute capabilities.
🌏
Edge Autonomy
The on-site execution agent operates independently of cloud connectivity. Local constraint enforcement and dispatch continue through internet outages, protecting operational continuity even when the cloud link is interrupted.

Standards alignment
that matters to your sector.

AmpVerve is built to meet the regulatory frameworks that govern the sectors we serve, from electricity market settlement to healthcare data protection.

Preparing for
quantum-era threats.

Quantum computers capable of breaking current RSA and ECC encryption are projected within 10–15 years. “Harvest now, decrypt later” attacks mean adversaries are collecting encrypted data today to decrypt once quantum compute arrives.

AmpVerve is adopting NIST-selected post-quantum algorithms across key exchange and digital signature operations, designed to protect data against both current and emerging threats.

CRYSTALS-Kyber (ML-KEM)
NIST-standardised post-quantum key encapsulation mechanism, selected to replace RSA and ECDH for key exchange across AmpVerve service-to-service communication.
CRYSTALS-Dilithium (ML-DSA)
NIST-standardised post-quantum digital signature algorithm, selected to replace ECDSA for signing audit trail entries, dispatch instructions, and settlement records.
TLS 1.3 Hybrid Mode
Combined classical and post-quantum key exchange in TLS 1.3 connections. Provides protection against both classical and quantum attacks during the transition period.
SHA-256 Hash-Chain Audit Log
Cryptographic audit trail uses SHA-256, which remains quantum-resistant (requires Grover’s algorithm, providing only square-root speedup versus exponential for RSA). Audit evidence remains secure.

Everything you need
to integrate securely.

Tooling for integration, testing, and ongoing operation, with security built into the developer experience.

🔑
API Key Management
Generate and manage API keys with granular scopes, rate limits, IP allowlisting, and automatic rotation. Keys are hashed at rest and never stored in plaintext. Full key audit history with creation, last-use, and revocation timestamps.
