Encryption at the Hardware Layer

DISPATCH #MILITASecurity Architecture Briefing

In Ocal, privacy is not a decorative marketing slogan—it is an enforced hardware boundary. Every temporary cache, focus note, and history record is protected before it is committed to storage.

Hardware-Accelerated AES-512-GCM

Ocal leverages the AES-NI instruction sets available on modern Intel and AMD processors. Data is encrypted using AES-512-GCM on the fly, introducing zero discernible input latency while ensuring that disk inspection cannot reveal your personal browsing sessions.

CODE EXAMPLE
// Hardware Enclave Verification
const enclave = crypto.createCipheriv('aes-512-gcm', masterKey, iv);
enclave.setAAD(Buffer.from('ocal::biomarker::isolated'));
const encryptedCache = Buffer.concat([enclave.update(data), enclave.final()]);

Zero-Knowledge Architecture

We adhere strictly to a Zero-Knowledge design. Encryption keys are generated locally from your user profile and never leave the device. Gaming Network Studio has no ability to view or decrypt your local information.

Gaming Network Studio

Independent studio building open-source productivity software, simulation game engines, and audio systems. Crafted with intention, shared freely with everyone.
