Protected remote coordination — archived research

Historical experiment

This page is retained so older links continue to resolve. It does not document the current AIA architecture or an active service.

The early AIA Chain prototype explored protected coordination between participants operating on separate devices. The research helped distinguish three concerns that remain important:

  1. Transport protection — information should be protected while moving between admitted participants.
  2. Participant authority — protection in transit does not remove the need to decide who may perform a task.
  3. Owner control — participation must remain explicit, purpose-bounded, and revocable.

Detailed key handling, message sequences, infrastructure choices, limits, and operational instructions have been removed. They belonged to a retired prototype and would not be a reliable or safe guide to the current system.
