Transparency and the Road to VPQ5
A public timeline of the encryption stack, the protocols that shaped Visk, and the milestones ahead. Follow the line below to find milestones of the past and fading into the future roadmap.
Start at 2026, then peel back the ages. Each click unlocks older eras of tech and Valkyrie lore.
Argon2 Payload Hardening
Modified Argon2 to harden payloads for TERA Online game API calls. The first step toward Visk-grade defense.
Kyber Python Library
Built a custom Python library for Kyber based on early proof-of-concept algorithm and integrated it into internal systems.
Dilithium Python Library
Built a companion library for Dilithium based on early proof-of-concept algorithm for quantum-safe signatures.
Aetherion Python Library
The Kyber and Dilithium work inspired building the Next-Gen Encryption Scheme (NGES) python library, Aetherion, and its lattice-based encryption.
VPK Quantum-Safe Archives
Created VPK, a quantum-safe archive format for arbitrary-length data, similar to other archive formats but with quantum-safe encryption.
VPK Explorer
Built an explorer to inspect and manage encrypted VPK containers. Allows to work on-the-fly inside archives without the need to extract the contents.
NIST FIPS Standard
Refactored and upgraded early primitives of Kyber and Dilithium to official NIST FIPS standards 203 and 204, forming the final quantum library.
Encrypted Mail System
First full-stack messaging prototype using public and private keys across the entire toolchain.
VPQ Iterations
Multiple protocol revisions solidified the VPQ5 container (Valkyrie Protocol Quantum, Level 5).
P2P E2EE Messenger
Core peer-to-peer, end-to-end encrypted messaging logic for Visk. P2P implemented using public Google STUN servers.
Visk Ops Management
High-secure management panel for enterprise control and relay hardening. Introduced "consensus votes" for system-breaking changes.
Web Chat Tunneling
Web Chat with local app tunneling for quantum encryption.
Windows Download
Windows beta after a proper code signing certificate for Valky Tech UG.
Geo-Availability (America)
Regional relay balancing with lower latency in the America region.
Visk Mobile
Public Android client with the VPQ5 encryption stack. iOS is blocked due to missing Apple hardware for builds and signing.
Visk STUN & TURN
Implementation and change from public to internal developed STUN and TURN services for complete peer-to-peer backend anonymity.
Geo-Availability (Oceania)
Latency-optimized relay balancing for the Oceania region.
Introducing AADA
Implementation and go-live date for proprietary "Anonymous Age Determination Algorithm" for compliance without personal private data.
Geo-Availability (Asia)
Regional relay balancing for Asia with federated trust links intact.
Quantum-Safe Voice Chats
E2EE voice layer powered by the VPQ5 quantum-safe stack using Visk TURN servers.
Quantum-Safe Video Streams
E2EE video with quantum-safe key exchange and signatures using Visk TURN servers.
