Introduction


The Strategic Paradox of Modern Cybersecurity


Over the past two decades, States have progressively recognized that cyberspace constitutes a strategic domain of operations comparable to land, maritime, air, and space domains. However, unlike these traditional domains, cyberspace presents a fundamental singularity: it relies almost entirely on civilian and commercial infrastructures.

Power plants and electrical grids, military systems, industrial systems, supply chains, datacenters, telecommunications, and digital platforms now constitute the real backbone of national power. National security therefore directly depends on software whose integrity cannot currently be guaranteed during execution.

This fragility creates a major paradox:

· States must protect their critical infrastructures,
· while simultaneously preserving their offensive capabilities in cyberspace.

Perfect cybersecurity would eliminate strategic intervention capability. Insufficient cybersecurity exposes nations to paralysis.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY emerges precisely within this balance.
It does not aim to make cyberspace impenetrable.
It aims to make it governable.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY – The Runtime Root of TrustTM : A Shift in Global Balance


Historically, cybersecurity has been based on prevention: code audits, software patches, behavioral detection, antivirus solutions, heuristic analysis, or artificial intelligence applied to vulnerability discovery (GLASSWING by ANTHROPIC), authentication, encryption, network segmentation, post-incident monitoring, corrective and preventive action management, and continuous improvement of tools and methods.

VALIDY introduces a conceptual shift: trust is no longer established before software execution but maintained dynamically during its operation.

A Runtime Root of TrustTM means that:

· software integrity is continuously verified in real time during execution,
· any attempt at modification is detected within milliseconds,
· the system can respond immediately.

This temporal shift—from static control to dynamic control—fundamentally alters the global economics of cybersecurity.

Because most advanced attacks (APT) rely on an implicit assumption: once access is obtained, the attacker can persist silently.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY eliminates this invisible persistence.

From that point on, cybersecurity ceases to be merely a technical discipline and becomes a diplomatic and strategic issue. Whoever controls the operational root of trust indirectly controls the stability of cyberspace.

Why Absolute Security Would Be Strategically Unacceptable for States


An immediate objection arises: if a technology perfectly protects systems, States lose their offensive capabilities.

This concern is legitimate but rests on a confusion between security and sovereignty.

States have never accepted the existence of infrastructures completely beyond their sovereign control. In the physical world:

· no industrial lock is designed without a master key,
· no military aircraft is delivered without neutralization mechanisms,
· no strategic electronic component is devoid of control mechanisms.

States already manage these realities in semiconductors, dual-use systems, and export controls.

VALIDY aligns with this continuity.

The Fundamental Analogy: The Lock, the Key, and the Master Key


A system protected by VALIDY TECHNOLOGY can be compared to a highly secure building.

The building has the lock.
The citizen has their individual key.
The administrator has a technical key.
The State has a sovereign master key, strictly governed.

Security does not consist in eliminating all possible entry. It consists in controlling who can enter, when, and under what legitimacy.

Thus, VALIDY TECHNOLOGY does not create an inaccessible fortress.
It creates an infrastructure where access becomes institutionally governed.

Preservation of State Offensive Capabilities


VALIDY TECHNOLOGY explicitly enables the preservation of cyber operational capabilities through several mechanisms compatible with existing doctrines.


1. Controlled Sovereign Access (Sovereign Access Layer)

An authorized State may have an exceptional access mechanism that can be activated:

· under legal mandate,
· in a national defense context,
· or within allied operations.

This access is not a hidden vulnerability but an audited sovereign function.

The distinction is fundamental:

• a clandestine backdoor weakens everyone;
• a governed sovereign access strengthens stability.


2. Strategic Kill Switch

The kill switch enables:

• neutralization of a compromised system,
• coordinated shutdown of a hijacked infrastructure,
• interruption of an ongoing large-scale attack.

States already use equivalents in:

• satellites,
• drones,
• telecom equipment,
• critical industrial components.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY extends this logic to running software.


3. Multi-State Control (NATO Model)

Within an allied framework, control may require multiple sovereign signatures.

No single State can act alone.
A coalition validates the action.

This model mirrors nuclear dual-key mechanisms adapted to cyberspace.
It introduces collective digital deterrence.


4. Continuity with Existing Dual-Use Practices

States already manage:

• certification of electronic components,
• ITAR export controls,
• secure supply chains,
• hardware/software security inspections.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY does not create a new legal paradigm; it extends an already operational framework to live software.

Protection of Critical Infrastructure and SCADA Systems


Critical infrastructures now represent the primary strategic attack surface:

• power generation and grids,
• water distribution,
• rail, automotive, and maritime transport,
• industrial production,
• military systems,
• banking systems,
• healthcare,
• telecommunications.

SCADA systems were designed for availability, not cybersecurity. VALIDY enables:

• protection of control system integrity,
• blocking of malicious command injection,
• maintenance of operational continuity even in hostile environments.

Sovereign Protection of Datacenters


The datacenter has become the modern equivalent of a strategic port or air base.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY transforms the datacenter into an integrity-guaranteed environment:

each protected machine simultaneously becomes:

• a secure system,
• a global integrity sensor.

Security no longer depends on a network perimeter but on the actual internal state of each executing process.

Even an attacker with administrator privileges cannot silently alter a critical service.

Distributed Global Monitoring: Protected Systems as Real-Time Sensors


When software protected by VALIDY TECHNOLOGY detects a corruption attempt, the event can be anonymized and sent to a global Security Operations Center (SOC).

At global scale, millions of protected systems become a planetary cyber detection network.

Each attack attempt generates a signal.

Aggregated through artificial intelligence, these signals enable:

• detection of APT preparation,
• early identification of offensive tools,
• cross-continental correlation of weak signals.

An offensive campaign can be identified before it is launched. Cyberspace becomes observable in near real time.

AI-Assisted Global Security Operations Center (SOC)

The VALIDY SOC operates as a global nerve center.

AI analyzes:

• execution anomalies,
• software coercion attempts,
• emerging attack patterns.

Detection shifts from a reactive model to a predictive model.

A State no longer waits for an attack: it observes its formation and anticipates its resolution.

Maintaining Offensive Capability in a Stabilized Cyberspace


Contrary to common belief, stronger defense does not eliminate offense; it transforms it.

With VALIDY TECHNOLOGY:

• indiscriminate attacks become ineffective,
• only targeted, authorized, and controlled operations remain possible.

States therefore retain:

• technical intelligence capabilities,
• influence operations,
• targeted neutralization,
• counter-cyber actions.

The difference is that these actions become traceable and politically controllable.

Cyberspace evolves from a digital Wild West into a regulated space comparable to international maritime law.

Diplomatic and Geopolitical Impact


A global Runtime Root of Trust reshapes the international balance:

• it reduces systemic cybercrime,
• it limits accidental escalation,
• it creates a common technical language among allies.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY can become a diplomatic standard, comparable to aviation, maritime, or nuclear conventions.

Trust no longer relies on political declarations but on verifiable technical guarantees.

Strategic Conclusion

Toward Strategic Stability in Cyberspace


VALIDY TECHNOLOGY does not seek to eliminate the cyber power of States.

It seeks to prevent that power from escaping all control.

By simultaneously enabling:

• protection of critical infrastructures,
• global real-time detection,
• preservation of sovereign offensive capabilities,
• multi-State governance,
• continuity with existing legal frameworks,

it proposes a natural evolution of cyberspace toward a stable, governable, and strategically balanced environment.

Just as nuclear deterrence did not eliminate war but limited certain forms of it, a global Runtime Root of Trust could inaugurate a new era:

one in which power still exists, but where chaos is no longer the norm.

Cyber Deterrence Based on Execution Integrity


Strategic history shows that international stability never emerges from the complete elimination of offensive capabilities, but from their technical and political regulation.

Nuclear deterrence is based on the certainty that a hostile action would be detected and would trigger a response. Air and maritime deterrence rely on continuous radar surveillance and on the traceability of movements.

In cyberspace, this condition does not yet exist: the attacker operates invisibly.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY introduces, for the first time, a new property: the practical impossibility of silently modifying software during its execution.

This property profoundly transforms strategic logic.

An attack becomes detectable not after its effects, but at the very moment it is attempted.

Cyber deterrence therefore ceases to be declarative; it becomes physical in the computational sense of the term.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY as a Runtime Root of TrustTM


The Runtime Root of Trust referenced in this document is not an abstract concept.

The Runtime Root of Trust is VALIDY TECHNOLOGY itself.

Unlike traditional approaches based on:

• hypervisors,
• external TPM modules,
• heavy software agents,

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY is embedded directly within processors.

It operates at the most fundamental level of execution.

Thus, trust no longer depends on the operating system, the administrator, or the network.

Trust becomes an intrinsic property of computation.

Technical Principle: Real-Time XOR Verification


One of the key characteristics of VALIDY TECHNOLOGY lies in its computational efficiency.

Integrity verification is based on an extremely simple principle:

during execution, the actual state of the program is continuously compared to the expected state as defined at compilation.

This comparison is performed using a fundamental logical operation:
XOR (Exclusive OR).

This operation has several decisive properties:

• near-zero computational cost,
• native hardware execution,
• no complex analysis and no risk of ambiguity: the program is unequivocally either intact or corrupted,
• near-zero latency (on the order of a nanosecond).

Unlike conventional cybersecurity solutions that add a heavy software layer, VALIDY TECHNOLOGY does not monitor behavior through interpretation; it mathematically verifies execution conformity. VALIDY TECHNOLOGY enables response times to attacks well below the millisecond threshold.

Security becomes a fundamental logical operation.

Strategic consequence: ultra-low consumption cybersecurity

Because VALIDY TECHNOLOGY relies on a minimal binary operation:

• CPU consumption is marginal,
• energy impact is negligible,
• no heavy infrastructure is required.

This property opens a domain previously inaccessible to advanced cybersecurity: resource constrained systems (in terms of power consumption, size, weight, and training requirements).

Protection of Embedded Systems


The majority of today’s critical systems are not servers but embedded systems:

• automotive, rail, and maritime vehicles,
• drones,
• industrial robots,
• humanoid robots,
• rockets, satellites, missiles,
• banking systems,
• medical devices,
• industrial sensors.

These systems cannot support traditional security solutions that are too resource-intensive. VALIDY TECHNOLOGY changes this equation.

Since verification relies on a simple XOR operation integrated into the processor, protection becomes compatible with:

• low memory,
• low power consumption,
• strict real-time computation.

An autonomous vehicle can continuously verify that its driving software has not been altered.

A humanoid robot can ensure that its motor functions are not being manipulated.

Drone Protection and Sovereign Neutralization


The case of drones perfectly illustrates the balance between security and offensive capability.

A captured or compromised drone currently represents a major strategic risk.

The adversary can:

• analyze its technologies,
• divert its use,
• turn the weapon against its owner.

With VALIDY TECHNOLOGY integrated:

the drone remains functional only as long as its execution integrity is preserved.

A sovereign mechanism can then enable:

• a remotely triggered kill switch,
• progressive neutralization,
• authorized regain of control,
• or irreversible deactivation.

This is not a vulnerability, but a mechanism analogous to those already present in many military systems.

Thus, even in the event of physical capture, the technological asset remains under sovereign control.

Preservation of Offensive Capabilities: Doctrinal Continuity


States are already familiar with these mechanisms.

In dual-use electronic components, there have long existed:

• deactivation functions,
• geographic restrictions,
• usage controls,
• controlled firmware.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY therefore does not create a legal rupture. It transposes to executing software the practices already accepted for strategic hardware.

States retain their existing tools:

• legislative frameworks,
• international agreements,
• export control mechanisms,
• NATO cooperation.

The technology becomes compatible with the current regulatory ecosystem.

Simplicity of Implementation: Automatic Security


A major obstacle to modern cybersecurity lies in its complexity.

It generally requires highly qualified specialists.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY adopts the opposite philosophy.

Security becomes automatic.

When a developer compiles their program: the VALIDY TECHNOLOGY protection is generated automatically.

The programmer does not need to be an expert in cybersecurity.

They simply continue their normal development process. Security ceases to be a specialized discipline and becomes a native property of the software.

This simplicity is likely one of the most strategic factors for adoption.

Protection of Artificial Intelligence


Infrastructures AI infrastructures are becoming priority targets.

Two phases are particularly critical:

1. training,
2. inference (model execution).

A corruption during training can introduce invisible biases.

An alteration during inference can manipulate decisions.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY ensures that:

• the executed model is exactly the validated one,
• no clandestine modification has occurred,
• results are not manipulated through intrusion.

Thus, AI infrastructures become auditable in real time.

Protected Datacenters and Global


Detection Network When VALIDY TECHNOLOGY is deployed at scale, each machine simultaneously becomes an integrity sensor.

A protected datacenter no longer simply hosts services.

It actively observes attack attempts.

Each anomaly detected within milliseconds can be anonymized and transmitted to a global SOC.

At a planetary scale, this forms a distributed detection network with no historical equivalent.

Global AI-Based Security Operations Center (SOC)


The VALIDY TECHNOLOGY SOC leverages these signals to identify:

• emerging offensive tools,
• APT campaigns in preparation,
• novel behavioral signatures.

AI no longer monitors only logs; it analyzes physical violations of software integrity.

Attack preparation becomes observable before execution. Defense becomes anticipatory.

Multi-State Governance and Shared Control


In an allied environment, certain sovereign functions may require multiple validations.

A mechanism comparable to a nuclear dual-key system can be applied: no single State can trigger a critical action alone.

This architecture enables:

• maintenance of national sovereignty,
• system interoperability,
• trust among allies,
• limitation of abuse,
• increased diplomatic legitimacy.

VALIDY and the Stability of Global Cyberspace


VALIDY TECHNOLOGY does not merely aim to reduce cyber conflict.

It aims to prevent systemic instability.

By making invisible attacks practically impossible, it shifts operations toward deliberate, accountable, targeted, and governed actions.

Cyberspace then evolves toward a model comparable to international maritime law: continuous competition, but framed by shared rules.

Sovereignty Conclusion


A New Architecture of Digital Sovereignty

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY proposes a profound transformation while remaining compatible with existing strategic realities.

It simultaneously enables:

• protection of critical infrastructures,
• security of embedded systems,
• protection of AI systems,
• distributed global monitoring,
• simplicity of deployment,
• low resource consumption,
• preservation of sovereign offensive capabilities,
• allied governance.

By embedding trust directly into the processor and automating security from design and development, VALIDY transforms cybersecurity from an operational cost into a fundamental property of computation.

Cyberspace therefore ceases to be a structurally unstable environment.

It becomes a space where technological power, sovereignty, and stability can finally coexist.

Why VALIDY TECHNOLOGY Can Become the Strategic Equivalent of GPS or the Internet


Modern technological history shows that certain innovations rapidly exceed their initial function to become structuring infrastructures of the international order.

The Internet was not designed as a global economic space, but as a resilient military network.

GPS was not designed for civilian navigation, but for U.S. strategic superiority.

Western cryptographic standards did not only secure communications: they shaped global digital trust.

These technologies share a common characteristic: they created a lasting structural asymmetry in favor of the States that controlled their architecture.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY possesses the necessary properties to join this category.


1. The Fundamental Problem of Today’s Cyberspace

Contemporary cyberspace is built on a structural contradiction.

Every digital economy requires trust.

But every current computing architecture allows invisible modification of software during execution.

In other words:
the digital world operates on trust that does not physically exist.

This fragility explains:

• the exponential growth of cyberattacks,
• the massive economic cost of cybersecurity,
• the impossibility of reliable attribution,
• the difficulty of establishing credible deterrence.

States spend billions detecting consequences rather than preventing the cause. VALIDY TECHNOLOGY acts precisely on this cause.


2. The Paradigm Shift: Securing Execution Itself

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY does not protect the network.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY does not only protect data.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY protects the act of computation.

By ensuring that the executed program exactly matches what was intended, it introduces a property that has been absent until now:

the physical reliability of software.

This transformation is comparable to the shift:

• from estimated navigation to satellite navigation,
• from analog communication to digital communication.

It changes the very nature of the domain.


3. An Invisible but Universal Infrastructure

Like GPS, VALIDY TECHNOLOGY does not need to be visible to become indispensable.

Once embedded within processors:

• every server,
• every vehicle,
• every robot,
• every industrial system,
• every AI infrastructure can become intrinsically verifiable.

The end user does not interact with VALIDY TECHNOLOGY.

They simply benefit from a digital world that has become reliable.


4. Runtime Root of Trust (VALIDY TECHNOLOGY): A New Foundational Layer of the Internet

The Internet today relies on several fundamental layers:

1. physical infrastructure,
2. network protocols,
3. cryptography,
4. cloud computing.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY introduces a new layer: universal execution trust.

This layer may become as fundamental as TCP/IP.

It transforms the Internet from a network of vulnerable machines into a network of verified executions.


5. Global Economic Impact

Current cybersecurity represents a permanent defensive cost.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY reverses the economic logic.

Instead of multiplying defensive solutions: security becomes native.

The economic consequences are major:

• massive reduction in traditional SOC costs,
• reduction in training requirements,
• reduction in the number and duration of updates,
• regulatory simplification,
• transformation of cyber insurance,
• automated software certification.

Trust becomes measurable.


6. Why This Becomes a Diplomatic Issue

A technology capable of guaranteeing global execution integrity immediately becomes a geopolitical matter.

Because whoever defines the root of execution trust implicitly defines:

• security standards,
• interoperability rules,
• sovereign access mechanisms,
• offensive balances.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY therefore no longer belongs solely to engineering.

It belongs to technological diplomacy.


7. Compatibility with Western Doctrines

Contrary to a utopian vision of a fully pacified cyberspace, VALIDY TECHNOLOGY respects strategic reality:

States must retain their capacity for action.

Thanks to integrable mechanisms:

• sovereign kill switches,
• controlled access,
• multi-key governance,
• NATO recovery control,

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY aligns with existing active cyber defense doctrines.

It does not eliminate State power; it makes it governable.


8. Analogy: The Lock, the Physical Key, and the Master Key

In the physical world, a State can secure a building while retaining a master key.

The lock remains inviolable to an intruder, but accessible to legitimate authorities.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY reproduces this model in cyberspace:

• maximum security against adversaries,
• controlled sovereign access for legitimate authority.

States have already mastered this model for decades in dual-use electronic components.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY simply extends this logic to executing software.


9. Global Detection Network: The Emergence of a Cyber Radar

When millions of VALIDY TECHNOLOGY systems operate simultaneously, they collectively become a global detection system.

Each attempt to corrupt execution becomes a signal.

Aggregated within an AI-based SOC, these signals enable:

• early detection of APTs,
• identification of emerging offensive tools,
• strategic anticipation of attacks.

Cyberspace thus acquires its equivalent of air radar.


10. A Historic Opportunity for Technological Democracies

The 21st century is witnessing competition between digital models.

Whoever defines the global trust infrastructure will durably influence the international order.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY offers technological democracies a rare opportunity: to establish verifiable trust without abandoning sovereignty.

Neither digital autarky.
Nor systemic vulnerability.

But a shared architecture based on controlled trust.

Global Strategic Conclusion


VALIDY TECHNOLOGY should not be understood solely as a cybersecurity innovation.

It potentially constitutes:

a new global strategic infrastructure.

Just as GPS structured global navigation,
just as the Internet structured the digital economy,

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY can structure computational trust in the 21st century.

It transforms:

• cybersecurity into a physical property,
• cyber deterrence into a technical reality,
• digital sovereignty into an operational architecture.

In a world where stability now depends on software, establishing a universal root of execution trust is no longer merely a technical innovation.

It is a civilizational choice.

Why States Have an Objective Interest in Supporting VALIDY TECHNOLOGY Rather Than Slowing It Down


1. The Apparent Paradox: A “Too Secure” Technology

Any radical security innovation initially triggers a reaction of institutional caution.

When a technology appears capable of significantly reducing global cyber vulnerability, a natural concern arises within States: if systems become too secure, will their ability to act in cyberspace be reduced?

This question is neither new nor specific to VALIDY TECHNOLOGY.

It has already emerged:

• during the widespread adoption of strong encryption in the 1990s,
• during the expansion of HTTPS,
• during the introduction of hardware secure enclaves,
• during the standardization of Zero Trust architectures.

At each stage, the same concern appeared: losing the ability to intervene.

And yet, history shows that States ultimately supported these technologies once they understood a fundamental reality: strategic stability provides more sustainable power than generalized vulnerability.


2. The Current Instability of Cyberspace Primarily Harms States

Contemporary cyberspace paradoxically favors non-state actors:

• criminal groups,
• hybrid actors and hackers,
• private proxies,
• opportunistic organizations.

These actors exploit precisely the absence of execution integrity.

States, on the other hand, depend heavily on critical digital infrastructures:

• energy,
• transportation,
• healthcare,
• military systems (defensive and offensive),
• finance,
• strategic AI.

Thus, the current asymmetry penalizes structured powers more than their adversaries.

A technology capable of stabilizing software execution therefore primarily reduces the attack surface against States themselves.


3. VALIDY Does Not Eliminate Offensive Capability; It Professionalizes It

The idea that strong security would prevent any offensive action is based on a confusion between two types of access:

• uncontrolled opportunistic access,
• governed sovereign access.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY eliminates the former while enabling the latter.

Mechanisms such as:

• controlled kill switches,
• conditional access,
• multi-authority activation,
• recovery control mechanisms,

allow States to retain their operational capabilities within a structured framework.

The essential difference is the following: indiscriminate attacks become difficult, but authorized sovereign operations remain possible.

This evolution brings cyberspace closer to the traditional military model, where power is based on control rather than chaos.


4. Continuity with Existing Dual-Use Component Practices

States have managed sensitive technologies incorporating control mechanisms for decades:

• secure circuits,
• export-controlled cryptographic systems,
• military equipment with neutralization functions,
• electronic components with usage restrictions.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY fits directly within this framework.

It does not create a new legal problem; it extends an already mastered framework to executing software.

Institutions therefore already possess:

• legislative mechanisms,
• control doctrines,
• international agreements,
• industrial practices.

Adopting VALIDY TECHNOLOGY amounts to applying known rules to a new technological layer.


5. Strategic Superiority Comes from Standardization, Not Exclusivity

A common misconception is that a strategic technology must remain limited to preserve advantage.

Historical experience shows the opposite.

GPS became a U.S. advantage precisely because it became universal. The Internet strengthened Western influence because its standards were adopted globally.

A globally adopted trust infrastructure creates:

• technological dependence,
• normative interoperability,
• long-term diplomatic influence.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY has this potential if it becomes an international reference.


6. Reduction of the Strategic Cost of Cybersecurity

Today, States devote considerable resources to:

• post-intrusion remediation,
• permanent monitoring,
• reconstruction and control of compromised infrastructures.

A Runtime Root of Trust structurally reduces these costs. Cybersecurity ceases to be a constant war of attrition.

Resources can be reallocated toward:

• innovation,
• strategic intelligence,
• proactive defense.

Supporting VALIDY TECHNOLOGY thus becomes a rational choice for budgetary efficiency.


7. A Decisive Advantage Against Future Systemic Threats

The coming decades will see massive expansion of autonomous systems:

• drones,
• robots,
• intelligent vehicles,
• the Internet of Things,
• AI-driven infrastructures.

Without guaranteed execution integrity, these systems represent an unprecedented attack surface.

An adversary capable of silently modifying these systems could trigger major physical effects.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY makes it possible to prevent this drift before it becomes irreversible.

States therefore have a strong interest in establishing a global root of trust now.


8. The Global SOC as an Advanced Defensive Intelligence Tool

The global network of protected systems becomes a distributed sensor.

Each attempt at corruption constitutes an exploitable signal.

Aggregated through artificial intelligence, these signals provide a new capability:

observing the preparation of APT attacks before they are launched.

Thus, supporting VALIDY TECHNOLOGY does not reduce cyber intelligence; it significantly amplifies it.


9. Preserving Sovereignty Without Shifting Toward Digital Autarky

In response to geopolitical tensions, some States are considering fragmentation of the Internet.

This approach leads to economic and technical inefficiency.

VALIDY offers an alternative: A shared infrastructure that remains sovereignly governable.

Each State retains its levers while benefiting from a stable digital environment.

Conclusion: Objective Convergence Between Public


Interests and VALIDY TECHNOLOGY From a strictly State perspective, supporting VALIDY TECHNOLOGY is not an idealistic act.

It is a strategic calculation. Because VALIDY TECHNOLOGY:

• prioritizes protection of national infrastructures,
• preserves legitimate offensive capabilities,
• integrates with existing legal frameworks,
• strengthens cyber intelligence,
• reduces structural costs,
• stabilizes global cyberspace.

Slowing down such a technology would amount to deliberately maintaining an instability that primarily harms States themselves.

The real strategic question is therefore not whether VALIDY TECHNOLOGY should exist.

It is who (how, and when) will participate in defining its governance framework.

Forward-Looking Scenario 2035: A Cyberspace Stabilized by a Global Runtime Root of Trust


1. 2035: The end of the era of persistent software insecurity

In 2035, cyberspace has not disappeared. Nor have geopolitical rivalries.

But a silent transformation has occurred.

The majority of the world’s critical systems now execute their software under a Runtime Root of Trust embedded within processors, derived from VALIDY TECHNOLOGY architectures.

This evolution did not result from a single treaty or a dramatic political decision. It emerged progressively, under the combined pressure of:

• major cyber crises of the early 2020s,
• insurance requirements,
• regulations on critical infrastructures,
• and the economic necessity to restore digital trust.

Software is no longer presumed trustworthy; it is now mathematically verified during execution.


2. The Invisible Transformation of Critical Infrastructures

Power plants and electrical grids, railway systems, hospitals, satellites, banking systems, and industrial supply chains continue to operate as before.

For the user, nothing has changed. But at a deeper level, each executed instruction is compared in real time to its expected state at design, through an extremely lightweight hardware mechanism ultimately based on XOR operations.

This continuous verification consumes minimal computational resources and has proven compatible with:

• legacy embedded systems,
• industrial microcontrollers,
• the Internet of Things,
• autonomous vehicles,
• humanoid robots,
• AI platforms.

Supply-chain attacks, once dominant, become rare because any software modification is immediately detected.


3. Datacenters Become Centers of Global Trust

Datacenters in 2035 are no longer merely locations for storage and computation.

They have become nodes of computational trust.

Each workload executed in the cloud continuously produces proof of integrity.

States and companies now know:

• what code is running,
• where it is running,
• and whether it has been altered.

Major incidents related to the silent compromise of cloud infrastructures have virtually disappeared.

Cybersecurity is no longer an endless race between attackers and defenders.


4. Cyberspace Acquires Its Equivalent of Air Radar

The most unexpected effect emerges when billions of VALIDY TECHNOLOGY systems are interconnected.

Each attempt to corrupt execution becomes a telemetry signal.

Aggregated in global AI-assisted SOCs, these signals form a dynamic mapping of hostile activities.

APT campaigns are no longer discovered months later. They are detected during their preparatory phase.

Cyberspace finally acquires an early warning capability comparable to 20th-century military radar systems.


5. Cyber Deterrence Becomes Credible

Before 2030, attribution of attacks remained uncertain.

Operations could be denied. With the widespread adoption of the Runtime Root of Trust:

• execution anomalies become traceable,
• behavioral signatures emerge earlier,
• global correlation enables strong probabilistic attribution.

Cyber deterrence gradually becomes comparable to conventional deterrence: major attacks decrease not due to technical impossibility, but due to strategic calculation.


6. Preservation of State Offensive Capabilities

Contrary to initial concerns, States have not lost their ability to act.

They have transformed it.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY systems integrate governed sovereign mechanisms:

• kill switches activated under legal conditions,
• multi-authority access,
• coordinated recovery control among allies,
• remote neutralization of compromised equipment.

A captured drone can be rendered inoperable.
A hijacked robot can be disabled.
A lost military system can be neutralized without physical destruction.

These functions rely on principles already familiar in the dual-use electronics industry.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY has simply extended this logic to executing software.


7. NATO and Multi-Key Governance

By 2035, certain international critical infrastructures operate under shared governance models.

No single entity holds absolute control.

The activation of sensitive functions requires multiple authorities:

• the operating State,
• the manufacturing State,
• a security alliance.

This model, inspired by nuclear dual-key systems, has enabled the establishment of political trust in an extremely powerful technology. Systems are secure, reliable, and interoperable.


8. AI Finally Becomes Controllable

AI training and inference infrastructures represent the main strategic surface of the mid 2030s.

Thanks to VALIDY TECHNOLOGY:

• models execute in an integrity-guaranteed environment,
• invisible alterations become detectable,
• operational poisoning attacks are significantly reduced.

States can certify that their critical AI systems operate as designed.

Trust in algorithmic autonomy becomes possible.


9. Massive Reduction in Global Cybercrime

Cybercrime does not disappear, but changes in scale.

Opportunistic attacks become ineffective against protected systems.

Criminal actors shift toward unsecured targets, which become increasingly marginal.

The digital economy gains stability comparable to that of modern financial infrastructures.


10. A New Digital Geopolitical Balance

The widespread adoption of a global Runtime Root of Trust has not eliminated international competition.

It has changed its rules.

Cyber conflicts no longer rely on the massive exploitation of systemic vulnerabilities, but on targeted, controlled, and politically accountable operations.

Cyberspace ceases to be a chaotic domain and becomes a strategic space regulated by technology itself.

Forward-Looking Conclusion


By 2035, the progressive adoption of VALIDY TECHNOLOGY as a global Runtime Root of Trust has not created a perfectly secure world.

It has created something more realistic and more valuable:

A cyberspace sufficiently stable to support a global digital economy, while allowing

States to retain their sovereign capabilities.

Just as GPS stabilized global navigation,
just as the Internet structured planetary communication,

VALIDY will have introduced a new civilizational constant:

Trust in computational execution.

Policy Recommendations and International Adoption Roadmap (2026 2035)


1. Strategic Challenge: From Technological Innovation to a Trust Infrastructure

History shows that a strategic technology becomes truly transformative only when it ceases to be perceived as an industrial product and becomes a collective infrastructure.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY, as a Runtime Root of Trust embedded within processors, possesses the characteristics required to cross this threshold. However, its global adoption will not depend solely on its technical performance. It will rely on the ability of States to organize a gradual transition, compatible with their imperatives of sovereignty, national security, and international stability.

Such an evolution requires close cooperation between public and private sectors, civilian and military domains, involving from the earliest stages processor designers and manufacturers as well as all key stakeholders of the industrial and digital ecosystem.

The challenge therefore extends beyond the strictly technological domain: it becomes simultaneously political, economic, and diplomatic.


2. Guiding Principle: Maximum Security, Preserved Sovereignty

Any adoption strategy must be based on a simple principle:

Technological trust can only be accepted by States if it does not reduce their sovereign capacity for action.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY must therefore be presented not as a locked system, but as an architecture enabling:

• systemic protection of infrastructures,
• preservation of legitimate offensive capabilities,
• national or allied governance of sensitive functions.

This positioning is essential to avoid natural institutional resistance to any technology perceived as limiting State action.


3. Phase 1 (2026–2028): Targeted Defensive Adoption

The first phase consists of introducing VALIDY TECHNOLOGY where political consensus is immediate: the protection of critical infrastructures.

States can deploy the technology in:

• energy networks,
• industrial SCADA systems,
• hospital infrastructures,
• rail and air transportation,
• civil and military satellites,
• sovereign datacenters.

At this stage, VALIDY TECHNOLOGY is presented as a mechanism for ensuring software execution reliability, easy to integrate since its implementation is automatic during program development and does not require advanced cybersecurity expertise.

This simplicity constitutes a decisive adoption factor.

It is common for processor designers and manufacturers to embed advanced technologies within their hardware architectures that are not activated at the time of market release. This allows them to later respond to specific public, governmental, or industrial needs. In such a context, the protection of critical infrastructures through VALIDY TECHNOLOGY could be significantly accelerated.


4. Phase 2 (2028–2030): Industrial and Cloud Standardization

Once validated on critical infrastructures, integration naturally extends to:

• cloud providers,
• processor manufacturers,
• embedded systems,
• connected vehicles,
• industrial robots.

Datacenters then become the first fully verifiable computational environments.

Cyber insurance providers and regulators begin to require execution integrity guarantees, accelerating adoption without direct regulatory constraints.


5. Phase 3 (2030–2032): Global Cyber Detection Network

As the number of protected systems increases, a new capability emerges.

Systems protected by VALIDY TECHNOLOGY collectively become real-time detection probes.

Each attempt to corrupt software generates a signal exploitable by a global AI-based SOC.

This architecture enables:

• millisecond-level detection of abnormal activity,
• early identification of APT campaigns,
• global behavioral analysis of threats.

States no longer merely react to attacks; they observe their preparation.


6. Phase 4 (2032–2035): International Governance and Sovereign Interoperability

Technological maturity leads to the establishment of shared governance frameworks.

Multi-key models emerge:

• primary national control,
• secondary allied validation,
• NATO mechanisms or coalition-based governance for transnational critical infrastructures.

This model avoids two opposing risks:

• excessive centralization,
• fragmentation of cyberspace.

Sovereignty becomes interoperable rather than isolated.


7. Explicit Preservation of Offensive Capabilities

To ensure strategic acceptance, States must retain means of action compatible with their doctrines.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY allows the controlled integration of functions such as:

• remote neutralization of captured equipment,
• recovery of control over compromised systems,
• conditional deactivation of drones or robots captured by adversaries,
• legally governed sovereign access.

These mechanisms do not constitute a radical doctrinal innovation. They extend existing practices in dual-use electronic component security.

The simplest analogy remains that of a physical key and a master key: the lock remains inviolable to an intruder while remaining accessible to legitimate authority.


8. Strategic Application to Autonomous Systems and AI

Autonomous systems represent the primary security challenge of the coming decade.

Thanks to its low computational cost—verification relying primarily on real-time XOR comparisons—VALIDY TECHNOLOGY can protect:

• military and civilian drones,
• autonomous vehicles,
• humanoid robots,
• AI training infrastructures,
• AI inference platforms.

A captured drone can be immediately neutralized through activation of an embedded sovereign mechanism. This capability significantly reduces the risk of hostile technological proliferation.


9. Diplomatic Advantage for Early-Adopter States

States that participate early in the governance of VALIDY TECHNOLOGY gain an advantage comparable to that historically achieved by the architects of Internet or GPS standards.

They influence:

• technical standards,
• access mechanisms,
• interoperability rules,
• international legal frameworks.

The technology thus becomes a vector of lasting influence rather than merely an industrial product.


10. Operational Recommendations

To maximize strategic benefits, it is recommended to:

1. initiate pilot programs on national critical infrastructures;
2. involve from the outset civilian, military, and industrial authorities;
3. integrate explicitly governed sovereign mechanisms;
4. promote open standardization among democratic allies;
5. develop an international SOC leveraging integrity signals;
6. integrate the Runtime Root of Trust into AI and robotic autonomy policies.

General Conclusion – Toward the Sustainable Stabilization of Global Cyberspace


20th-century cybersecurity consisted of protecting systems after they had been compromised.

21st-century cybersecurity consists of making compromise itself instantly detectable.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY, as a Runtime Root of Trust embedded at the core of the processor and automatically activated during software compilation, proposes a structural evolution of cyberspace:

An environment where trust no longer relies on assumptions, but on continuous verification of execution.

In a world dependent on software for its economic, military, and societal functioning, this evolution goes beyond the technical domain.

It constitutes a step toward the sustainable stabilization of global cyberspace

The Essential Complementarity of VALIDY TECHNOLOGY with CLAUDE MYTHOS by ANTHROPIC within the GLASSWING Project Framework


This project consists of a consortium bringing together major players in cloud computing, cybersecurity, software, and finance (launch partners of the project).

• cloud & infrastructure (AWS, Microsoft, Google)
• manufacturers & hardware (Apple, NVIDIA, Broadcom)
• cybersecurity (CrowdStrike, Palo Alto Networks, Cisco)
• critical finance (JPMorgan Chase)
• open source (Linux Foundation)

The idea is to secure the core of global digital infrastructure before equivalent capabilities are exploited offensively.


From probabilistic cybersecurity to deterministic cybersecurity

For more than thirty years, global cybersecurity has been primarily based on a probabilistic approach to risk. Protection systems aim to reduce the likelihood of compromise through the accumulation of defensive mechanisms: code audits, software patches, behavioral detection, antivirus, heuristic analysis, or artificial intelligence applied to vulnerability discovery.

Recent initiatives (April 2026) in automated code analysis using AI, such as the CLAUDE MYTHOS project developed by ANTHROPIC, represent the culmination of this logic. They make it possible to identify potential flaws more quickly, including unknown vulnerabilities (zero-day), and significantly improve overall software quality.

However, this approach remains intrinsically probabilistic: it reduces risk without being able to eliminate it. No analysis system, whether human or algorithmic, can demonstrate the absolute absence of vulnerability in complex software. Moreover, even a perfectly audited program can be altered after deployment through compromise of the execution chain.


Why would the global deployment by ANTHROPIC of the new CLAUDE MYTHOS AI version be so dangerous today?


An AI model as powerful as CLAUDE MYTHOS, if it fell into the wrong hands, would provide offensive capabilities to states, criminal groups, or malicious hackers far exceeding current defensive capabilities.

And we know that most essential services are digitized. Therefore, the dissemination of CLAUDE MYTHOS would democratize hacking on an unprecedented scale, effectively giving cyber attackers the equivalent of a nuclear weapon, while cyber defenders would be left with insufficient—if not negligible—means.

And if ANTHROPIC has managed to build such a powerful AI with such cyber capabilities, other companies and nations will undoubtedly achieve the same very soon.

And they will not all be Western…


This is why the complementarity of VALIDY TECHNOLOGY becomes as necessary as it is indispensable within the GLASSWING consortium.


VALIDY TECHNOLOGY introduces a paradigm shift by moving the point of trust from software to its hardware execution. As a Runtime Root of Trust embedded within the microprocessor, the technology does not attempt to anticipate attacks but to physically prevent any unauthorized modification of software behavior from producing a real effect.

The continuous verification of execution integrity, performed in real time through elementary operations with extremely low computational cost, transforms cybersecurity: the question is no longer merely “is an attack likely?” but “can an attack still produce an outcome?”

This transition marks the shift:

• from cybersecurity based on threat detection,
• to cybersecurity based on the non-alterability of execution.

In this model, predictive code analysis and hardware-based execution guarantees become complementary. Artificial intelligence reduces the introduction of vulnerabilities; the Runtime Root of Trust prevents their operational exploitation.

For states, this evolution goes beyond the technical dimension. It opens the way to a stabilization of cyberspace comparable to that historically provided by certain critical physical infrastructures: an environment where offensive capability remains, but where massive and invisible system compromise becomes structurally more difficult.

Thus emerges a deterministic cybersecurity, in which trust no longer relies solely on analysis or monitoring, but on the intrinsic properties of computation execution itself.


CLAUDE MYTHOS by ANTHROPIC and VALIDY TECHNOLOGY: toward a two-layer cyber architecture (AI and Runtime Root of Trust)

This dynamic reflects a collective realization of a now established fact: human code analysis is no longer sufficient given the complexity and scale of modern digital systems. CLAUDE MYTHOS by ANTHROPIC provides a response adapted to this scale by automating vulnerability detection, including the most advanced ones, and significantly reducing the probability of introducing exploitable flaws.

However, this first layer, as essential as it is, does not resolve a structural limitation of cyberspace: the impossibility of guaranteeing that software will remain intact after analysis, deployment, and throughout its execution. The history of sophisticated attacks, particularly those targeting supply chains or execution environments, demonstrates that compromise can occur at any point in the digital lifecycle.

This is precisely where VALIDY TECHNOLOGY intervenes.

As a Runtime Root of Trust embedded at the core of microprocessors, VALIDY TECHNOLOGY constitutes a second layer of security, no longer based on analysis or detection, but on guaranteeing execution integrity itself. It ensures, in real time, that software behavior strictly matches what was validated at compilation, making any operational alteration immediately detectable and neutralizable.

The combination of these two approaches creates a coherent and comprehensive architecture:

• a first layer, cognitive and predictive, based on artificial intelligence, aimed at identifying and reducing vulnerabilities upstream;
• a second layer, hardware-based and deterministic, ensuring that these vulnerabilities cannot produce effects during execution, even if they persist or are introduced later.

This two-layer architecture represents a paradigm shift. It no longer merely seeks to reduce risk but to structurally control its consequences.

For states, this complementarity offers major strategic value. It enables the development of cybersecurity that is both proactive and resilient, capable of adapting to highly hostile environments while maintaining sovereign control over critical infrastructures. It also paves the way for the progressive standardization of a trust chain covering the entire software lifecycle, from design to actual execution.

From this perspective, VALIDY TECHNOLOGY should not be seen as competing with initiatives such as CLAUDE MYTHOS by ANTHROPIC, but as their natural extension in synergy at the most fundamental level of computing. Together, they outline the contours of a next-generation cybersecurity infrastructure, adapted to contemporary challenges and to the strategic balances of cyberspace.


Toward an implicit Western cyber doctrine


The simultaneous emergence of large-scale AI-driven code analysis capabilities, through initiatives such as the GLASSWING project, along with the development of execution integrity technologies like VALIDY TECHNOLOGY, does not reflect isolated developments. Rather, it signals the gradual emergence of an implicit cyber doctrine among Western technological powers.

This doctrine, still informal, is based on a coherent articulation between two complementary principles. On one hand, the use of artificial intelligence to anticipate, detect, and reduce vulnerabilities at scale. On the other, the establishment of execution trust anchored in hardware, ensuring that digital systems behave as validated, regardless of operating conditions.

This dual movement responds to a strategic necessity: in the face of the industrialization of attacks and the growing complexity of systems, no single approach can ensure overall security. The combination of predictive cybersecurity and deterministic cybersecurity thus constitutes a systemic response adapted to contemporary environments.

Beyond the technical dimension, this convergence outlines the contours of a common framework between states, industrial players, and operators of critical infrastructures. It fosters the emergence of de facto standards, based not on formal agreements but on the gradual adoption of shared practices and architectures.

In this perspective, the association of technologies such as CLAUDE MYTHOS and VALIDY TECHNOLOGY could help structure a transnational trust infrastructure, compatible with sovereignty requirements while facilitating interoperability among allies. It thus opens the way to a relative stabilization of cyberspace, in which control over digital systems depends as much on their design as on the technical impossibility of altering them during execution.

Without constituting a formal doctrine, this dynamic already resembles a form of strategic convergence, destined to play a structuring role in the international digital balance of the coming decades.

Protection of Know-How, Impossibility of Reverse Engineering a Program Protected by VALIDY TECHNOLOGY, and Structural Traceability


One of the most structuring effects of VALIDY TECHNOLOGY lies in its ability to make the instructions actually executed within the secure environment in which it operates inaccessible. By relying on execution within a security coprocessor integrated into the microprocessor, the technology prevents, by design, any direct or indirect observation of instructions in execution.

This property is not an added mechanism, but a direct consequence of the architecture of VALIDY TECHNOLOGY. Instructions, encrypted during compilation within a controlled environment, are only decrypted at the moment of execution, within an isolated hardware space. They are never exposed in an exploitable form outside this space, even in potentially compromised environments.

Under these conditions, traditional reverse engineering techniques become ineffective. Binary code analysis no longer provides access to the actual logic of the program, and observation of its behavior does not allow reconstruction of executed instructions. The link between observable code and internal system behavior is structurally broken.

This impossibility of reverse engineering has a major consequence: the know-how embedded in software, whether proprietary algorithms, simulation models, industrial logic, or artificial intelligence systems, becomes intrinsically protected. Where historically any software could be analyzed, understood, and reproduced, VALIDY TECHNOLOGY introduces a durable technological barrier to the appropriation of know-how.

In a context where artificial intelligence capabilities greatly facilitate reverse engineering by automating the analysis and reconstruction of complex logic, this property takes on strategic importance. VALIDY does not merely slow down analysis: it renders it structurally inoperative.

However, this invisibility of content does not imply absence of signature. The very architecture of VALIDY induces specific execution characteristics linked to its operating mode within the processor. These characteristics, without revealing the nature of the executed instructions, constitute a form of structural traceability.

Thus, while making the content of protected programs inaccessible, VALIDY TECHNOLOGY leaves an identifiable technical footprint. This dissociation between content opacity and signature persistence is fundamental. It opens the possibility of detecting the presence of the technology, including when it has been integrated into a system or processor without authorization.

VALIDY TECHNOLOGY therefore protects not only the integrity and know-how of software but also establishes the basis for recognizing its own use, including in uncontrolled contexts.

Evidentiary Capability, Detection of VALIDY TECHNOLOGY Implementations, and Legal Valuation


While VALIDY TECHNOLOGY makes any reverse engineering operation aimed at accessing the content of protected programs impossible, it simultaneously introduces a decisive capability: demonstrating its use without revealing its internal mechanisms.

This capability relies on the identification of execution signatures specific to the technology. Through the analysis of these signatures, particularly using advanced artificial intelligence techniques, it becomes possible to determine with a high level of confidence that a program, system, or even a processor incorporates or uses mechanisms consistent with VALIDY TECHNOLOGY.

This situation can be compared to a linguistic phenomenon: an observer may be unable to understand a language while still being able to identify it. Similarly, VALIDY TECHNOLOGY prevents access to instruction content while allowing recognition of the underlying technological structure.

This property takes on particular significance in the context of semiconductors and hardware architectures. If actors were to integrate, reproduce, or adapt the principles of VALIDY TECHNOLOGY within processors or security coprocessors without authorization, the associated execution characteristics could be identified. The technology thus becomes, through its mere use, the bearer of a detectable footprint.

From a legal standpoint, this capability represents a major lever. It allows the establishment of technology use without requiring direct access to source code or disclosure of protected elements. In contexts where proving infringement is traditionally difficult, particularly in embedded technologies or hardware architectures, VALIDY introduces an indirect but objective proof mechanism.

This evidence can be used in technical expertise, litigation, or international arbitration proceedings. It makes it possible to demonstrate that an actor uses VALIDY TECHNOLOGY, even when it is deeply embedded in a hardware architecture, without apparent access to internal elements.

It also strengthens deterrence. The fact that unauthorized use of VALIDY TECHNOLOGY can be detected, even without access to system content, changes the economic and strategic balance for potential infringers.

Thus, VALIDY TECHNOLOGY does not only protect software and systems from analysis and compromise. It also enables identification and proof of its own use, including in opaque or hostile environments.

This dual property—content invisibility and implementation detectability—constitutes a fundamental basis for the protection, valuation, and defense of the technology at an industrial and international scale.

Evidence of Infringement of VALIDY TECHNOLOGY in Hardware Architectures and Semiconductors


Demonstrating infringement in the field of semiconductors has historically been one of the most complex exercises in technology law. Unlike software, whose components can sometimes be analyzed or compared, hardware architectures are deeply embedded in circuits, protected by multiple layers of integration, intellectual property, and manufacturing secrecy.

In this context, access to evidence generally relies on heavy and uncertain mechanisms: intrusive technical investigations, court-ordered expert assessments, or specific procedures such as discovery in common law systems. These approaches present significant limitations, both in terms of technical feasibility and in protecting industrial secrets of the parties involved.

The use of advanced artificial intelligence such as MYTHOS (ANTHROPIC) and CHATGPT 5.4 (OPENAI) makes it possible to establish proof of infringement of VALIDY TECHNOLOGY.

By introducing an identifiable execution signature, independent of access to the internal content of systems, the technology makes it possible to demonstrate the use of its principles without resorting to invasive operations. This capability is particularly decisive in cases where similar mechanisms may have been integrated into processors or security coprocessors without authorization by industrial actors.

Analysis can then be based on external observations, measurable behaviors, or execution characteristics, allowing the construction of a technically substantiated body of evidence. This type of approach is compatible with evidentiary requirements in many legal systems, provided it relies on robust, reproducible, and expert-validated methods.

In common law jurisdictions, this capability can significantly strengthen discovery procedures by guiding requests for information access and reducing initial uncertainty regarding the existence of infringement. It enables a progressive evidence logic, in which prior identification of a credible technological signature justifies further investigation.

In international arbitration frameworks, often preferred for disputes involving sensitive technologies or state or quasi-state actors, this approach offers a decisive advantage. It reconciles two usually conflicting requirements: the need to demonstrate unauthorized use and the imperative to preserve the confidentiality of the technologies involved. Evidence can be provided without exposing the elements constituting industrial secrets, thereby strengthening the admissibility and acceptability of proceedings.

Beyond litigation, this capability also transforms industrial power dynamics. The ability to detect unauthorized use of VALIDY TECHNOLOGY at the hardware level, without direct access to circuits, introduces a significant deterrent effect. It helps secure business models based on licensing and strengthens the credibility of intellectual property rights in a field where their enforcement has traditionally been difficult.
