Introducing VIBE Cyber
Trust Nothing. Authenticate Everything. That’s our mantra and it speaks to the power and importance of VIBE – new-age crypto for new age security problems.
Discover the difference.
VERIFIABLE
Identity-Based Encryption
Identity-Based Encryption
Identity-Based Encryption (IBE) was proposed in 1984 by renowned cryptographer, Adi Shamir, and advanced in the 1990s as a “breakthrough approach to encryption key management.” Our connected world has changed a lot since then, however, and in response to today’s cybersecurity challenges, VIBE Cyber is bringing to market next-generation IBE. VIBE dramatically improves on IBE by eliminating the need to protect the public parameters and adding authentication at the application layer.

VIBE Described
VIBE is an acronym for Verifiable Identity Based Encryption.
It is certificate-less and disrupts popular authentication and key exchange protocols.
Certificate-Less
VIBE is certificate-less, eliminating the set up and management challenges associated with certificate based solutions.
Benefits Unlike PKI, VIBE is designed to scale to the levels required for massive deployments characteristic of the Internet of Things and Blockchain. With no certificates to manage, VIBE applied can protect billions of devices with ease.
Authentication at the Application Layer
In an increasingly treacherous cyber-security landscape. VIBE authenticates the sender of a message, be it person or thing.
Benefits By authenticating or verifying the sender of every message, VIBE ensures that any and all messages received are from trusted sources.
Data at Rest
VIBE keeps data secure and can authenticate users according to client policies which govern level of access.
Benefits Data is highly vulnerable to outside threats, and not a day goes by when yet another supposedly protected system is hacked and valuable information is stolen. VIBE ensures that data is only available to authenticated parties, locking out cybercriminals and better protecting people, places and things.
Lightweight
VIBE has a very small digital footprint.
Benefits Given its light code and power requirements, VIBE can easily be embedded on microchips,
Gateways and SIMs etc., and it elegantly enables authentication and key exchange.
Flexible
VIBE can be used with embedded private keys on devices and end-points, and/or with no requirement for secure local storage.
Benefits Trust Centres (TC’s) can be embedded on a chip and you can configure them for cross-domain secure communication, between stand-alone trust centres. In this way, it’s social by design.
Key Exchange
VIBE is an asymmetric encryption and authentication scheme, that provides absolute security and the simplicity to share the secret keys with anyone.
Benefits Fresh, new, random, asymmetric keys generated for each transaction, securely authenticating and exchanging the symmetric keys of your choice.

Why VIBE?
The connected world as we know it today is badly broken. Effective security is inhibited by the high costs of Public Key Infrastructure (PKI), its inherent vulnerabilities and its other technical limitations; the existing patchwork approach to security clearly does not work.
VIBE’s certificate-less authenticated encryption enables scalable, flexible key exchange, and other advanced cryptographic functions using identity-based elliptic curve cryptosystems (ECC). VIBE is perfectly suited to secure the Internet of Things (IoTs), the blockchain, other fintech systems, email, and virtually every other connected solution that is in need of ironclad security. By design, VIBE eliminates the need for costly, cumbersome PKI.
Applications
VIBE is not a solution. It is a cryptographic ingredient that can be embedded in your connected products, services and solutions, with applicability in virtually every industry.
Internet of Things
(Platform, Devices, Semiconductors)
Commonly devices rely on semiconductors as a part of their functionality and increasingly, these products are able to communicate with each other through the internet. There are very few security standards within the IoT and yet millions of devices are being deployed daily with no embedded security. Dated security approaches such as PKI are overly complex to set up and manage, are not secure enough and cannot scale. VIBE-protected devices, monitored through an IoT VIBE-protected platform scales easily and will provide you with global visibility of your assets.
Security Software as a Service
(SSaaS)
The combination of VIBE protected apps using a downloadable software secure element solves the SMB security challenge without the need and cost of deploying hardware secure elements.
Enterprise/Government Communications (email, VOIP, FTP, Collaboration)
Working closely with another partner, VIBE is deploying its technology on micro SD cards, creating an offering capable of securing any communications device (fixed or mobile). This service can replace TLS/SSL and SSH and facilitate secure email, VoIP, authentication, Blockchain and file sharing applications.
Mobile Communications/Blockchain
Mobile and Blockchain developers can deploy VIBE to secure authentication and key exchange requirements. Its certificate-less feature and peer-to- peer functionality make it a perfect security ingredient for e-banking solutions and so much more.
