USPTO Provisional Patent 63/918,785

Why it matters

Conventional update architectures assume connectivity to vendor infrastructure. In disconnected and classified environments, that assumption breaks. The alternatives — manual patching, physical media transfer, infrequent updates — create operational risk and accreditation pain.

This architecture bridges the gap: deterministic, integrity-verified workflows that respect the trust boundary between external sources and operational domains. No cloud dependency. No vendor runtime requirement. Policy enforcement at ingest.

Architecture principles

• Trust-boundary enforcement — clear separation between external source domain, ingest and verification boundary and air-gapped operational domain
• Integrity verification as a gate — every update artifact is verified before it reaches the operational side; verification failures halt the flow
• Policy enforcement — programmatic approval gates aligned to accreditation and operational constraints
• Deterministic behavior — the same inputs produce the same verification outcome every time, supporting audit and rollback
• No runtime dependency on cloud or vendor infrastructure — the operational domain stays isolated as intended
