What’s new at PureCipher.

PureCipher, a deep technology company focused on securing artificial intelligence and intelligent systems, is positioning itself at the center of an emerging race to build trustworthy AI. The company’s work spans data integrity, secure communications, encrypted AI inference, AI agent governance and trusted autonomous systems across both commercial and national security applications.

Sir Alfred J. DiMora, CEO of PureCipher National Strategic Systems, is featured in a MYVEGAS Magazine cover story, “Sir Alfred J. DiMora and the New Race to Build Trusted Intelligence.” DiMora founded Starbridge Systems in the late 1990s, developing FPGA-based reconfigurable supercomputing architectures and the Viva programming language before accelerated computing became central to the AI industry.

DiMora argues that capability alone will not determine the future of AI: systems that operate infrastructure, vehicles and defense platforms have to be trustworthy as well as capable. As Founder and CEO Wendy Chin puts it, trust must become as fundamental to AI infrastructure as compute itself.

PureCipher is applying its Trusted Reasoning architecture for edge AI to intelligent mobility. “The automobile is evolving from a machine we drive into an intelligent system we entrust to drive us,” said Sir Alfred J. DiMora, Chief Executive Officer of PureCipher National Strategic Systems.

The architecture integrates trusted data provenance, resilient communications, AI governance, secure edge processing and an Artificial Immune System designed to detect and respond to anomalous behavior. It is intended to operate across defense, healthcare, critical infrastructure and transportation.

“Future vehicles will not simply process information. They will perceive, reason, and make decisions that directly affect human safety,” DiMora said. Founder and CEO Wendy Chin framed the wider goal simply: the future of artificial intelligence depends on trust — autonomous intelligence has to operate securely and stay aligned with human intent, including in complex or contested environments.

PureCipher Inc., a U.S.-based advanced technology company specializing in trusted artificial intelligence and secure autonomous systems, signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Brightminds Technologies Inc. on June 8, 2026. The collaboration integrates secure AI technologies with Human-Centric Intelligence methodologies across defense, enterprise and critical infrastructure.

“Future intelligent systems will require trusted data, trusted AI, trusted communications, and trusted execution,” said Wendy Chin, Founder and CEO of PureCipher. The partnership aims to develop governance frameworks extending from human intent through to operational outcome, so that humans retain control of increasingly autonomous systems.

Dr. Terrance Bell, Founder, Chairman and CEO of Brightminds Technologies, added that “the future belongs not to artificial intelligence alone, but to the effective partnership between human intelligence and machine intelligence.” The work addresses human readiness, institutional resilience and trustworthy human-AI collaboration.

PureCipher National Strategic Systems LLC announced a three-way strategic collaboration with an advanced scientific laboratory and PureCipher Inc. to accelerate secure AI infrastructure. PureCipher Inc. retains intellectual property ownership while PC NSS handles commercialization for U.S. defense and government sectors.

The collaboration advances PureCipher’s Artificial Immune System platform, including OmniSeal®, Noise-Based Communications, ZeroExposure AI and Multiverse AI Persona — supporting data integrity, encrypted AI computation, resilient communications and governed agent behavior in mission-critical environments.

Sir Alfred DiMora, CEO of PC NSS, described the partnership as a deliberate alignment of science, technology and mission execution. PureCipher is separately advancing these technologies through a U.S. Air Force Direct-to-Phase II SBIR program focused on secure communications in contested operational environments.

PureCipher Inc. named Sir Alfred J. DiMora CEO of PureCipher National Strategic Systems (PC NSS), a subsidiary supporting U.S. Government and Department of Defense missions. DiMora, co-founder of Starbridge Systems and founder of DiMora Motorcar, brings a background in advanced computing and AI integration.

“As AI becomes foundational to national security, trust can no longer be assumed, it must be engineered,” said Wendy Chin, Founder and CEO of PureCipher. The appointment follows validation of the company’s technologies through a Direct-to-Phase II Small Business Innovation Research award from the United States Air Force.

PureCipher’s Artificial Immune System platform includes OmniSeal® tamper-evident technology, Noise-Based Communication and Fully Homomorphic Encryption-enabled AI processing, with a focus on protecting against data poisoning, model compromise and adversarial manipulation.

PureCipher presented its Artificial Immune System™ (AIS) framework as a response to risks from autonomous AI agents interacting at scale, as exemplified by the Moltbook platform. “When AI systems interact directly with other AI systems, the attack surface moves inside the model itself,” said Founder and CEO Wendy Chin. AIS monitors behavior to detect anomalous patterns and contain threats without relying on static rules.

The company identified specific exposures in current deployments: untrusted AI-generated content can redirect other AI systems, autonomous agents can propagate malicious instructions at machine speed, and conventional perimeter defenses fail when manipulation happens inside the reasoning process itself.

William Edward Hahn, PhD, Co-Founder and Chief Science Officer, noted that the company has been building “AI-native defenses designed to operate inside intelligent systems.” PureCipher urged organizations deploying agentic AI to revisit their assumptions about trust boundaries, permission models, and the difference between observing information and acting on it.

PureCipher Inc. and Hawk Cyber Security, a technology integrator specializing in cybersecurity and AI, signed a Memorandum of Understanding to collaborate on secure and trustworthy AI systems. The initial focus targets the USA and European Union, with plans to jointly pursue a funded project on AI-assisted data tokenization.

The partnership integrates PureCipher’s Artificial Immune System technologies, including OmniSeal® for tamper-evident data sealing, with advanced secure communication techniques. “AI systems are only as trustworthy as the data they rely on,” said Wendy Chin, Founder and CEO of PureCipher. The aim is data that stays authentic, traceable and resistant to manipulation across its lifecycle.

Greg Digsby, Founder and CEO of Hawk Cyber Security, added that “secure data is the foundation of trustworthy AI.” Dr. Nikos Bogonikolos, Chief Science Officer of Hawk Cyber Security, said the collaboration redefines how sensitive data is protected, governed and owned in an AI-enabled digital economy.

PureCipher released SecureMCP as open source — an extension of the Model Context Protocol designed to embed cryptographic trust, compliance and resilience into multi-agent AI systems. “SecureMCP makes every agent transaction provably trustworthy,” said Wendy Chin, Founder & CEO, adding that open sourcing it ensures trust belongs to everyone, not just one company.

SecureMCP integrates five interconnected modules — a Pluggable Policy Engine, Inter-Agent Contract Module, Provenance Ledger, Reflexive Core and Federated Consent Graph — into a continuous Trust Loop. Every agent request is either approved and recorded with cryptographic proofs, or rejected with the violation permanently logged.

Co-Founder Graham Morehead said the technology injects “security, compliance, and resilience directly into the agent runtime.” PureCipher, based in Boca Raton, Florida, positions SecureMCP as a reference framework for finance, healthcare, defense and industrial IoT.

PureCipher was awarded a Direct-to-Phase II SBIR contract by AFWERX to develop next-generation Aerial Combat Platform technology for the U.S. Air Force. The work is sponsored by the Michigan Air National Guard’s Kelly Johnson Joint All-Domain Innovation Center, with the Alpena Combat Readiness Training Center as the end user.

“This award recognizes our team’s mission to defend data, models, and critical operations in real time using quantum resilient and AI native protections,” said Wendy Chin, Founder & CEO. The product suite behind the award includes OmniSeal tamper-evident technology, Noise-Based Communication for stealth transmission, and Fully Homomorphic Encryption-enabled AI processing.

AFWERX and the Air Force Research Laboratory have been reforming the SBIR and STTR programs to accelerate innovation and reduce administrative burden for small businesses. Since the Open Topic program launched in 2018, the Department of the Air Force has awarded over 10,400 contracts worth more than $7.24 billion. PureCipher’s execution began June 30, 2025.

PureCipher, a woman- and minority-owned cybersecurity company, launched Personal BOSS (Build-in OmniSeal® Security Shield), an application that lets users conceal sensitive data within generic files for secure sharing. It targets everyday users who want protection on personal devices without technical complexity.

“With Personal BOSS, we’re putting power in the hands of everyday users to protect their data,” said Wendy Chin, Founder & CEO at PureCipher. The application offers an interface designed for all skill levels, with privacy protection and simplified sharing of documents, photos and work files.

PureCipher™ launched its Data Integrity OmniSeal® Application Programming Interface on October 23, 2024. The solution combines quantum-safe encryption, steganography, unified embedding and blockchain technology to track data provenance and detect tampering. Developers can use the hosted API or deploy it via Docker images in their own environments.

Founder & CEO Wendy Chin described the API as addressing “the growing need for advanced data security solutions.” Dr. William Hahn, Co-Founder and Chief Science Officer, emphasized that it “combines multiple advanced technologies into one cohesive solution.”

PureCipher™ is a woman- and minority-owned company focused on data integrity and AI security, drawing on expertise across artificial intelligence, quantum computing and cybersecurity. The API is available for deployment in banking, healthcare, insurance and logistics.

Wendy Chin, Founder and CEO of PureCipher, delivered a master class and joined a panel at InCyber Forum Europe in Lille, France, March 26–29, 2024. Her session, “Ensuring Security to Enable AI Safety,” addressed the interplay between AI security and data integrity, which she described as the cornerstone component of protecting AI systems against manipulation and exploitation.

PureCipher’s patent-pending portfolio at the time included Universal Multiplex Watermarks for data integrity across formats, Fully Homomorphic Encryption for inference over encrypted data, and Noise Based Computations to reduce attack surface. The company collaborates with SingularityNET and Florida Atlantic University’s Machine Perception and Cognitive Robotics Laboratory.

Chin also presented at the Treasury Department’s Interagency Anti-Fraud Forum, focusing on data integrity for secure AI and fraud prevention.

PureCipher, an AI security company based in Boca Raton, Florida, marked its two-year anniversary on March 5, 2024. Founder Wendy Chin described the mission as empowering users to harness AI’s full potential through proactive security measures, addressing vulnerabilities in fast-moving AI technologies.

Milestones to that point included patent-pending innovations and a strategic partnership with SingularityNET for decentralized AI systems. Dr. William Hahn, Co-Founder and Chief Science Officer, highlighted work on Universal Multiplex Watermarks and quantum-safe Fully Homomorphic Encryption designed to secure data integrity without compromising privacy during analysis.

The company had released UMW API version 1, received the 2023 award for Most Visionary AI-Led Cybersecurity Solutions Provider, and hosted the inaugural OpenAIS Symposium in December 2023.

PureCipher announced Universal Multiplex Watermarks (UMW) API Release 1, giving developers encryption, digital signatures, steganography and data-tampering detection. The APIs are reachable through an online portal and via Docker images for deployment in custom environments.

Founder and CEO Wendy Chin said the technology “embeds secure, invisible watermarks into data files, authenticating their origin and safeguarding against tampering.” The approach watermarks datasets so that tampering becomes detectable: when marked data is altered through pixel changes, filtering, cropping or compression, the watermark becomes invalid, confirming the original was compromised.

Chief Science Officer Dr. William Hahn noted that Release 2 would add advanced features for data provenance and lineage verification using blockchain technologies. PureCipher collaborates with SingularityNET and maintains a scientific partnership with Florida Atlantic University’s Machine Perception and Cognitive Robotics Laboratory.

The inaugural OpenAIS Symposium concluded December 4–5, 2023 at Florida Atlantic University’s Rubin Gruber Sandbox Conference Center in Boca Raton.
