NovaQ (NOVAQ) on Ethereum is a groundbreaking post-quantum integrity protocol designed for AI systems. It offers a modular, cryptographically aligned framework for verifying, stress-testing, and optimizing AI systems in a trustless, post-quantum-aware environment. The protocol includes a verification layer for authenticity and deployment integrity, an optimization layer for prompt and query inputs, and a stress testing layer for simulating runtime stress and adversarial conditions. With NIST finalizing PQ cryptographic standards, NovaQ addresses the demand for quantum-safe audit trails and model attestation tools, especially in defense, finance, and healthcare sectors. Additionally, it features a secure enclave simulation, hash-based identity fingerprinting, and a smart API response tester to simulate AI or backend APIs under different input conditions.
