Adytum Sanctum // Sovereign Key Management & Zero-Egress Secrets
The Adytum Rite unifies ancient Hermetic principles with zero-egress hardware encryption. 22 Major Arcana keys (Key 0 The Fool to Key XXI The World) guide the software engineering lifecycle.
Cryptographic Architecture
- Memory-Hard KDF: Argon2id (t=3 iterations, m=64MB memory cost, p=4 parallelism lanes) running on loopback port 8787.
- Symmetric Cipher: XChaCha20-Poly1305 with extended 192-bit nonces to eliminate nonce-reuse collisions.
- Kernel Page Locking: Decrypted secret bytes are pinned in non-swappable memory (mlock) and zeroized immediately post-task.
- 5-Minute Incubation Rule: Cognitive stillness mechanism generating SHA-256 thesis commitment digests.
