Blockchain Storage of Encrypted Device Profiles Against Cyber Attacks

The encryption system is divided into two independent layers: traditional cryptographic encryption and quantum cryptographic encryption. Each layer handles specific security requirements, with the first layer providing baseline protection and the second layer providing advanced protection against quantum computers and sophisticated attacks. This segmentation allows the system to achieve high security without requiring a single complex encryption mechanism.

The patent implements nested encryption by placing the traditionally encrypted data inside the quantum encrypted container. The quantum encryption layer wraps around the traditional encryption layer, creating a multi-layered security structure where each encryption layer protects the underlying data and encryption keys. This nesting approach maximizes security while maintaining clear structural organization.

The system performs preliminary encryption actions by encrypting data with traditional cryptography first, then immediately encrypting the result with quantum cryptography. This sequential preliminary encryption ensures that data is protected at multiple levels before being stored or transmitted, preventing any single attack vector from compromising security.

The patent introduces configuration keys as intermediary elements that facilitate the quantum encryption process. These configuration keys act as mediators between the traditional encryption layer and the quantum encryption layer, enabling the transition between encryption schemes while maintaining security and simplifying the overall process management.
