A Resilient and Decentralized System Based on Blockchain and Quantum-Secure Communication for Cyber and Strategic Diplomacy
TL;DR
The proposed architecture significantly amplifies organizational resilience against sovereign-state data disruption and harvesting attempts within highly adversarial environments and offers an extensible foundation for the development of future resilient ecosystems supported by blockchain and quantum technologies.
Abstract
This paper proposes, implements and tests a resilient and decentralized system based on blockchain and quantum-secure communication for cyber, scientific, and strategic diplomacy. By introducing a dynamic post-quantum cryptographic binding layer, the proposed architecture significantly amplifies organizational resilience against sovereign-state data disruption and harvesting attempts within highly adversarial environments. The system guarantees end-to-end transparency and confidentiality in the sharing of resources, and it can be used in resilient organizations and for cyber, scientific, and strategic diplomacy. It integrates the following technologies and modules: blockchain technology with a semantic distribution of quantum keys, a frontend interface built exclusively with React, a backend module implemented in Python Flask 3.1.2 and served via Gunicorn 25.0.3, and a set of modular components dedicated to blockchain, quantum simulation, and distributed storage. Moving past theoretical bounds, this work presents structural Threat Models, real-world deployment parameters for Eastern European research infrastructures, and multi-variable empirical performance evaluations under authentic institutional workloads. Moreover, the proposed architecture offers an extensible foundation for the development of future resilient ecosystems supported by blockchain and quantum technologies.
