Where cryptography meets conscience

"Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."

Vericustos augments today's certificate ecosystem with a prevention-first, distributed, human-attested trust layer. It's private by design, transparent by default, and post-quantum from day one. We don't replace your CAs — we add a verifiable truth layer on top.

  • Glass-box architecture: Every function and transaction is inspectable, never hidden.
  • Human accountability: People verify truth alongside cryptography — attestations prove claims without exposing private data.
  • Guardian governance: Multi-signature consensus ensures no single actor — not governments, corporations, or even us — can manipulate truth.
  • Real-time Pause: Instantly suspend trust during investigation, then safely resume without re-issuance.
Orb status: Trusted • live verification enabled

The Mission: Trust as a Human Right

Vericustos exists to level the trust playing field for everyone. We're building the distributed conscience of digital civilization — a platform where truth proves itself through math, human accountability, and verifiable transparency.

⚖️

Provably neutral

Guardian consensus ensures no government, corporation, or individual can rewrite truth. All governance actions are logged and cryptographically verified.

🔍

Verifiable by design

Every trust event — from attestation to revocation — is recorded in an append-only transparency log with Merkle proofs and on-chain integrity anchors.

🛡️

Prevention over payout

Legacy systems insure against breaches. We prevent them — containing incidents in minutes, not days, with verifiable SLAs and real-time Pause capabilities.

The Vericustos Distributed Trust Platform

A verifiable transparency layer that binds human attestation with post-quantum cryptography, augmenting today's PKI without replacing established roots.

🔒

Post-quantum foundation

NIST-aligned PQC algorithms from day one — pure ML-DSA and SLH-DSA signatures with no hybrid compromises or quantum vulnerabilities.

👤

Human-attested claims

Licensed professionals anchor high-impact attestations; cryptography verifies, but people remain accountable — bridging digital validity with real-world responsibility.

🟢

The Trust Orb

A universal signal of truth — a persistent, user-visible indicator showing real-time trust state (Trusted, Paused, Revoked) across all platforms.

🧊

Transparent by default

Attestations and status changes are logged with Merkle proofs and on-chain anchors — no black-box trust, only verifiable transparency.

⏸️

Pause without re-issuance

Suspend trust in seconds during investigation, then safely resume — preserving existing chains and avoiding re-issuance overhead.

🛡️

Guardian governance

No single actor can alter records. Consensus-based, multi-signature controls make all policy changes inspectable and immutable.

Real-time containment

Incidents are isolated with verifiable SLAs (target: sub-15-minute global propagation) — preventing damage rather than insuring against it.

🔐

Privacy by design

No silent data collection, no backdoors, no observer access. Verify claims without exposing personal information.

🧩

SDK for builders

Drop-in libraries for Web, mobile, and server environments — making verification and attestation simple, consistent, and auditable.

How it works

Three steps to verifiable trust that augments existing infrastructure without requiring new certificate roots.

1) Human verification

A licensed professional (notary, CPA, attorney) verifies the subject and signs an attestation — anchoring digital trust to real-world accountability.

2) Transparency binding

Bind human attestations and existing certificates to a PQ-verified transparency log with on-chain anchors — augmenting, not replacing, current PKI roots.

3) Live verification via Orb

Users prove possession on demand; the Orb shows real-time trust status (Trusted, Paused, or Revoked) with cryptographic proof of freshness.

Build with the Vericustos SDK

Drop-in libraries and a clean API for verifying attestations, reading transparency checkpoints, and driving the Orb — with Pause/Resume hooks. We augment your existing PKI; no new roots required.

Sample verify call
// Pseudocode
const cert = await vc.fetchCertificate(id)
const ok = await vc.verify({ cert, challenge: nonce })
if (ok && cert.status === 'valid') orb.show('trusted')
else if (cert.status === 'paused') orb.show('paused')
else orb.show('untrusted')
