Technical Specification: RIGOR-PRS-Secure++
Post-Quantum Genomic Evidence Generation Architecture
The RIGOR-PRS-Secure++ algorithm represents a forward-looking solution engineered to address a critical challenge at the intersection of genomics and cybersecurity. By integrating a new generation of post-quantum cryptographic primitives into a multi-stage processing pipeline, the algorithm provides end-to-end protection for the generation of polygenic risk scores.
Pipeline Execution
Modular Operational Phases
-
Phase 0: Initialize PQC Environment
Establishes foundational Kyber-768 keys and secure TLS channels.
-
Phase 1: Secure Data Ingestion
Client-side hybrid encryption of raw VCF data using AES-256-GCM encapsulated by Kyber.
-
Phase 2: PQC-Secured Annotation
Secure API queries to external databases over PQC-TLS channels.
-
Phase 3: Encrypted Model Processing
PRS computation within hardware-secured Trusted Execution Environments (TEE).
-
Phase 4: Final Ledger Commitment
Immutable blockchain-verified audit trail generation.
