VETTORE // CRYPTOGRAPHIC TRANSPORT

CINETICA / DETERMINISTIC

BARE-METAL / 20HZ

Bare-Metal Security on Bare-Metal Silicon.

Security belongs on the silicon, not bolted on as an afterthought. Vettore embeds its cryptographic transport layer directly into ArduPilot’s native C++ codebase, running deterministically on the STM32 flight controller.

01 / THE MOAT

The protocol is the security boundary.

By decoupling the cryptographic barrier from the physical radio, Vettore turns commercial RF hardware into zero-trust tactical datalinks.

Ephemeral cryptographic ratchet

An embedded Double Ratchet adaptation continuously derives keys using X25519 Diffie-Hellman exchanges and BLAKE2b hash chains over active 20Hz MAVLink telemetry.

Post-compromise resilience

Every payload frame operates under forward secrecy. Captured wreckage or an extracted session key cannot unlock prior telemetry, and future communications self-heal.

Determinism under load

Optimized Monocypher primitives execute within microsecond cycles while preserving flight-critical PID loops, sensor fusion, and navigation processing.

02 / TECHNICAL ARCHITECTURE

Security belongs on the silicon.

The physical radio is replaceable. The cryptographic barrier is not.

ZERO-TRUST / NO PLAINTEXT

ZERO-TRUST / NO PLAINTEXT

VETTORE / NATIVE

Zero-trust transport

Bare-metal serial integration places the security boundary inside the flight controller instead of inside a proprietary accessory.

LEGACY / BOLTED-ON

Commodity RF hardware

Commercial radios become tactical datalinks when every frame is authenticated, ratcheted, and treated as untrusted in transit.

A / 01

Ephemeral ratchet

Dynamic X25519 exchanges and BLAKE2b chains continuously refresh the keys protecting active telemetry.

A / 02

Forward secrecy

A compromised session does not expose prior frames or permanently poison the next one.

A / 03

Microsecond primitives

Monocypher stays out of the way of flight-critical PID timing, sensor fusion, and navigation.

ARM64 / LINUX

A / 04

Compute proxy

A high-efficiency Pi 5 ground proxy and airborne payload brain extend the secure transport layer through aerospace-grade Tefzel CAN-bus harnesses.

03 / THE CINETICA AIRFRAMES

Two missions. One hardened core.

Commercial velocity and military endurance share the same zero-trust transport layer.

CINETICA / COMMERCIAL

Commercial validation variant

A rapid-iteration, twin-boom pusher VTOL utilized for relentless software stress-testing and aerodynamic validation.

CINETICA / MILITARY

NDAA-compliant military variant

A fully ally-sourced, composite VTOL built for the DoD procurement gauntlet, featuring proprietary American-made molds and in-house carbon fiber layup.

04 / ABOUT THE EXECUTION

Proof lives in the loop.

The Vettore stack is engineered at the boundary between protocol determinism and flight hardware. No theater—just repeatable behavior under load.
