HekateForge SEPC (Shared Entropy Pool Choreography) File Transfer Tool
What is HekateForge SEPC (Shared Entropy Pool Choreography):
HekateForge (Patent Pending #3278624) is a Steganographic/Cryptographic engine designed to map plaintext secrets to positions inside pools of random values.
Using this model, we can implement SEPC - Shared Entropy Pool Choreography: A system of communication whereby messages are transmitted via reference to shared pools of random data.
This allows for a system where:
- No version of the secret is ever transmitted. (No standard ciphertext)
- Deriving the secret from any of the individual components (PLD, Pool, MetaData) is impossible.
- Secrets are not "decrypted" so much as they are re-synthesized when conditions are correct.
Why HekateForge SEPC:
Some major benefits of using SEPC system over standard encryption (AES/RSA) are:
- MITM attacks are useless against a transmitted PLD due to the PLD never containing any version of the secret.
- Communications using SEPC are quantum-resistant due to not relying on mathematical algorithms. This ensures secrets remain secret no matter how good computers get.
How HekateForge SEPC Works:
SEPC works by mapping the pieces of a file to the same pieces in a file full of random information.
Simplistically, the system:
- A pool of random ASCII letters is generated.
- The pool is AES encrypted and uploaded to the SEPC Vault
- The secret is converted to Base64 format.
- The resulting Base64 string is taken apart character by character and each one is mapped to the same character in the random ASCII pool.
- The numerical references from the previous step are put together into a long string of numbers
- The string of numbers undergoes an XOR operation to jumble the numbers up.
- The resulting jumbled numbers are compressed and saved as a PLD file.
What's in HekateForge SEPC:
The SEPC system is made up of two parts:
1. The SEPC File Tool
- Provides Encode/Decode operations and coordinates pool management with the SEPC Vault.
- Python PoC: sepc.py
2. The SEPC Vault API
- Stores 25KB AES Encrypted pools for 10 minutes.
- Upon first read, or if older than 10 minutes, shreds the pool with 3x overwrite and deletion
- Python PoC: sepc-vault.py
