Sovereign Operations
Q-AUDION supports multiple deployment modes to match every threat scenario: from enterprise BYOD to fully air-gapped for classified operations.
NFC + QR Sovereign Pairing
With no server at all, two earbuds can agree on a Pre-Shared Key through an NFC or QR exchange. Subsequent calls bypass the cloud infrastructure entirely. Suited to classified operations where even signaling is sensitive.
- NFC read per PSK exchange contactless
- Offline QR for phone-to-phone exchange
- PSK mixed into the handshake via the q-audion-psk-mix label
BYOD Enterprise
For corporate scenarios: the company provides the earbud, the employee uses their own smartphone. Encryption remains hardware-enforced because all cryptography happens in the earbud, independently of the personal device.
- Zero MDM required on the personal device
- Employee privacy preserved
- Corporate audit limited to the hardware perimeter
Air-Gap Classified
In classified scenarios the Sovereign Server runs on an air-gapped network, accessible only from internal terminals. The desktop client connects exclusively via a dedicated network interface. The earbud operates without any internet connection.
- Internal server only, no Internet egress
- OTA firmware loaded manually
- Logging compatible with classified SIEM systems
