No. Naoris Quantum Protocol is an enterprise post-quantum trust and compliance layer. It uses distributed multi-party verification, but it is not a blockchain, not a token, and does not require one. ### How does it relate to NaoX Protocol and the $NAORIS token? They are separate. **Naoris Quantum Protocol Inc.** and **NDSE Cyber Ltd** — operator of naoxprotocol.com and issuer of the $NAORIS token — are separate and independent legal entities. This documentation covers the enterprise protocol only. ### Do we have to replace our existing security stack? No. The protocol deploys beneath the existing stack. It adds post-quantum verification to current investments rather than replacing them — no changes, no downtime, no lock-in. ### Why act before quantum computers can break current cryptography? Because of harvest-now, decrypt-later. Encrypted data captured today can be stored and decrypted once quantum capability exists. For data with a long confidentiality life, the exposure has already begun. ### What cryptography does it use? Post-quantum signature schemes — Dilithium-5 — within a crypto-agile architecture, so primitives can be upgraded as standards evolve without redesigning the infrastructure. ### Can it run air-gapped or on sovereign infrastructure? Yes. Hybrid and on-premises deployment is air-gapped capable, keeping verification inside the perimeter, and is DORA concentration-risk compliant. ### Which industries is it for? It is industry-agnostic. Adoption concentrates in government and defence, banking and finance, telecom and IoT, healthcare, and smart infrastructure — environments with regulatory exposure, long asset lifetimes, and low tolerance for disruption. --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.naorisquantumprotocol.com/support/frequently-asked-questions.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
