Quantum-Tolerant DNS

DNS is quantum-compatible. It both is and is not the source of every problem.*

Your A record deserves to be both observed and mysterious. Your customers will thank you. Your developers will frustrate themselves into incredible availability.

What we actually are

QTDNS fuses practical DNS fundamentals with ceremonial governance and modern crypto theory. We pair DNSSEC integrity with hybrid KEMs, add a configurable ambiguity layer called Schrödinger's A™, and wrap it with a Root Committee Concierge that schedules quarterly key rollovers and commemorative press release templates.

Schrödinger's A™

An A record simultaneously observed and unobserved until validated. Uses stale-while-revalidate, split horizon, and an observer signature.

DNSSEC with Ritualized Rollover

KSK/ZSK rollovers wrapped in ceremony and RRSIG Blessing™.

Hybrid KEM Resolver

Classic DNS + post-quantum KEM agility, graceful fallback for legacy resolvers.

Stale-While-Policy™

Serve stale answers while revalidating; minimize user impact, maximize managerial calm.

Root Committee Concierge

RSVP root key planning and produce signed minutes and a commemorative press photo.

Propagation Theater

Executive-grade visuals showing propagation in business days (with optional "mood" overlay).

Technical Architecture

QTDNS leverages proven DNS mechanisms: TTL and stale-while-revalidate semantics create controlled uncertainty states; DNSSEC timing windows with KSK/ZSK rotation provide cryptographic integrity; split-horizon configurations enable differentiated resolution paths for internal and external observers; registry-registrar coordination maintains authoritative state through automated reconciliation workflows.

Implementation: Schrödinger's A combines conditional authoritative responses with tuned cache lifetimes and observer-gated publication workflows. All features maintain validation integrity while providing flexibility for operational narratives.

Perpetual Status Page Green

99.9999999%*

Achieving nine nines of dashboard greenness (seven nines of actual uptime sold separately). We call it Perpetual Status Page Green because it perpetually keeps your dashboard green regardless of observable reality.

* Excludes weekends, holidays, planned maintenance, unplanned maintenance, and that one Tuesday

SLA Preservation Mathematics

Five nines (99.999%) allows 5.26 minutes of downtime per year. Through strategic incident reclassification, planned maintenance windows, and retroactive timeline adjustments, we maintain SLA compliance while preserving executive confidence and customer trust narratives.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers engineered for maximum plausible deniability

We include DNSSEC and hybrid KEMs. We also include a compliance ritual. Security and theatre are deliberately complementary.
It will either fix it, postpone it, or transform it into a quarterly narrative that looks great in slide decks.
Safe for executive dashboards, philosophical workshops, and noncritical vanity domains. For mission-critical systems, ask your engineer.
The dashboard has a blame switch. You can toggle between Registrar, CDN, Resolver, Time Oracle, and BGP (for tradition).
