# Naoris Protocol

> Quantum-proof cybersecurity for Web3

Naoris Protocol is a Layer 1 blockchain designed to provide post-quantum cybersecurity for Web3 infrastructure, using dPoSec consensus to continuously validate devices, validators, and smart contracts.

Naoris Protocol is a Layer 1 blockchain built for real-time cybersecurity across Web3 and enterprise infrastructure, serving validators, smart contracts, DePIN networks, and bridges. Developers can build on the chain directly, while existing networks integrate it as a security layer below L0, L1, and L2 systems. The protocol uses Dilithium-5 post-quantum cryptography and dPoSec consensus to validate device integrity at sub-10 millisecond intervals.

## Products

- [Naoris Protocol](https://thegrid.id/profiles/naoris_protocol): Naoris Protocol is a Layer 1 blockchain that operates as a security infrastructure layer beneath existing blockchain stacks. Its dPoSec (Decentralized Proof of Security) consensus mechanism requires each participating device to continuously validate the integrity of other devices, producing real-time trust scores anchored on-chain with NIST-approved Dilithium-5 post-quantum cryptographic signatures. Built-in capabilities include real-time validator and node integrity monitoring, behavioral threat detection for smart contracts, hardware attestation for DePIN devices, a post-quantum signing framework, cross-chain trust propagation, and a distributed AI engine for network-wide anomaly detection. The network can integrate with existing L1s, L2s, bridges, DeFi protocols, and DePIN networks, or operate as a standalone sovereign blockchain for applications requiring quantum-resistant infrastructure.

- [Naoris Consulting](https://thegrid.id/profiles/naoris_protocol): Naoris Consulting is the professional services arm of Naoris Protocol, providing advisory and implementation services to enterprises, regulators, and government organizations for cybersecurity and digital transformation using Naoris Protocol's technology. (Service Provider, Live)

## Assets

- [Naoris (NAORIS)](https://thegrid.id/profiles/naoris_protocol): NAORIS is the native utility token of Naoris Protocol. It is used for bonding validator nodes into the dPoSec consensus mesh, paying network transaction fees, earning security validation rewards, and participating in governance. Tokens flow between devices as on-chain proof that security validations have occurred, with slashing penalties applied to malicious or compromised nodes. (Native)
