Security Architecture & Cryptographic Chain of Custody

Standards: ISO/IEC 27037 • NIST SP 800-86 • Section 63 BSA 2023 • US FRE 902(13)/(14)

Forensic video intelligence intended for police accident investigators, municipal highway authorities, insurance arbitrations, and newsrooms requires verifiable cryptographic integrity. AetherFloww enforces end-to-end evidentiary security from initial stream ingestion to final dossier verification.

1. Immutable SHA-256 Evidentiary Hashing at Ingestion

At the exact millisecond a candidate collision clip passes kinematic and acoustic verification, the raw frame sequence and synchronized audio stream are hashed in volatile memory using SHA-256. The system generates a signed Certificate of Electronic Custody recording the source ingress URL, server UTC timestamp, frame count, and cryptographic digest.

Digest Algorithm: SHA-256 (FIPS 180-4) • Statutory Certificates: Section 63 BSA 2023 & US FRE 902(14)

2. Zero-Disk Volatile Memory Isolation

To eliminate data-at-rest exposure of unverified public broadcasts, Stage 1 Farneback optical flow and Stage 2 epipolar geometry filters execute strictly inside ephemeral RAM buffers. Non-incident streams are overwritten immediately without writing temporary files to persistent storage volumes.

3. Web Origin & Transport Hardening

Strict HTTP Security Headers & Content Security Policy

All web properties under aetherfloww.com enforce TLS 1.3 transport encryption, HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS preload), strict Content-Security-Policy (blocking unauthorized scripts, frames, and data exfiltration), X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff, X-Frame-Options: DENY, and Permissions-Policy disabling browser camera, microphone, geolocation, and USB interfaces.

4. Responsible Vulnerability Disclosure (RFC 9116)

AetherFloww publishes a machine-readable security disclosure policy at /.well-known/security.txt. Security researchers who identify a potential vulnerability in our web infrastructure or verification pipeline are encouraged to send a detailed report directly to yash@aetherfloww.com. We acknowledge security reports within 24 hours and do not pursue legal action against good-faith security research.
