VGT Research Protocol V4.0

THE OMEGA
PROTOCOL

An experimental architecture study for reconstructing the server DNA.
We investigate deterministic hardening methods based on military standards. The goal of this project is to achieve a theoretical state of maximum physical resilience.

STUDIEN-PARAMETER LADEN

The research goal: Lynis Score 85+

A Lynis Score of 85+ on an active cloud server is considered the limit of architectural feasibility while maintaining operational usability.

Theoretical Limit (Score 100)

A score of 100 requires the amputation of almost all modern management interfaces. For cloud infrastructures that require flexibility, this is a conceptual extreme. Our research seeks the optimal point between isolation and interaction.

Implemented Status (Score 85+)

We focus on kernel-level hardening (Auditd, BPF-Shields) and post-quantum encryption, while maintaining compatibility with modern control panels. This is the safest form of architecture that can be productively researched today.

OS Isolation Study

KERNEL HARDENING

Investigation of kernel-level mechanisms to prevent module injection. We implement a strict lockdown path that seals the system DNA after the initial boot.

PQC Study

POST-QUANTUM CRYPTO

Evaluation of hybrid key exchange methods. We use the ML-KEM-1024 standard to secure data against future decryption vectors.

Topology Defense

NETWORK & FIREWALL SHIELD

Isolation des Netzwerk-Stacks und systematische Eliminierung unerwünschter Protokolle. Wir implementieren tiefgehende Paket-Inspektionen und SYN-Cookie-Härtung zur absoluten Abwehr volumetrischer Angriffe.

Strikte IPv4/IPv6 Routing Restriktionen

Access Architecture

AUTHENTICATION & IDENTITY

Absolute Eliminierung symmetrischer Passwort-Vektoren. Der Systemzugriff erfolgt exklusiv über asymmetrische Kryptografie. PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules) werden restriktiv limitiert und überwacht.

Immutability Study

FILESYSTEM & FORENSICS

Verankerung von Mandatory Access Control (MAC) auf Dateisystem-Ebene. Jeder kritische Syscall wird protokolliert. Änderungen an der System-DNA triggern sofortige Quarantäne-Protokolle via AIDE und Auditd.

AppArmor Enforce Mode Profiles
Real-Time Auditd Syscall Tracing
