Diagram 2a and 2b Description: IES Lifecycle Management within ASKA Hub

This diagram details the lifecycle of an IES instance within the ASKA Hub, focusing on the Orchestrator's role and its interaction with other components. The process is visualized as a flow, starting with the initial request and ending with termination.

Components and Interactions:

Orchestrator (IES Lifecycle Management): The central component managing the entire lifecycle. It's highlighted to emphasize its importance.

Resource Allocator (P10): The Orchestrator requests resources from the Resource Allocator, which utilizes the AI-powered capabilities of Patent 10 for efficient resource assignment.

IES Provisioning: This stage involves preparing the necessary resources (CPU, memory, network, etc.) for the new IES. It receives policies from the Policy Engine (Patents 4 and 16).

DTMS (P4): Before deployment, the new IES instance interacts with the DTMS for trust establishment. This ensures that the new instance adheres to the security policies and trust relationships defined within ASKA.

IES Deployment (Secure Boot - P1): The IES instance is deployed using a secure boot process (Patent 1), ensuring its integrity from the start. This stage also receives software provisioning from the AESDS (Patent 16), preparing the IES for its intended function.

IES Pool (Active Instances): Represents the pool of currently active and running IES instances. The MSM (Patent 2) provides continuous security monitoring for these instances.

Scaling Request & Termination Request: The Orchestrator handles scaling (increasing or decreasing resources) and termination requests originating from the IES Pool or other system components.

IES Termination: This stage involves securely decommissioning and removing the IES instance.

AESDS (P16): Provides the necessary software components and configurations to the newly deployed IES instance.

MSM (P2): Continuously monitors the security posture of active IES instances, detecting and reporting any anomalies.

Policy Engine (P4, 16): Provides the security policies (Patent 4) and software update policies (Patent 16) that govern the operation and maintenance of IES instances.

IES Instance Details (Example): This subgraph provides a simplified view of the newly created IES instance, showing its hardware (CPU, Memory, I/O, Network) and software (Secure Kernel, Secure OS, Applications) components. This visually represents the end product of the IES lifecycle management process.

Key Features Highlighted:

Dynamic Resource Allocation: The interaction between the Orchestrator and Resource Allocator emphasizes dynamic resource management.

Secure Boot and Software Provisioning: The inclusion of Secure Boot and AESDS integration highlights the secure initialization of new IES instances.

Trust Establishment: The DTMS integration ensures that new IES instances are trusted entities within ASKA.

Security Monitoring: Continuous monitoring by the MSM ensures the ongoing security of active IES instances.

Policy Enforcement: The Policy Engine's influence on provisioning and deployment reinforces the policy-driven nature of ASKA.

Clear Lifecycle Flow: The diagram clearly visualizes the steps involved in the IES lifecycle, from creation to termination.

Diagram 10 Description: Adaptive Multi-Channel Network - The Quantum Highway

This diagram visualizes the Adaptive Multi-Channel Network (Patent 3) within ASKA. It emphasizes dynamic routing, security checkpoints, and secure connections to external systems.

Components and Interactions:

IES Cluster (Patent 1): IES instances send data packets (represented as vehicles) through their respective Network Interface Cards (NICs). The NICs are "Capability-Aware," performing initial hop field/capability verification (Patents 2/25).

Multi-Channel Network (Patent 3) - The Quantum Highway: This subgraph represents the core of the network.

Secure Channels 1, 2, 3: Distinct channels with different trust levels (High, Medium, External/Legacy). These are visualized as separate highway lanes.
Hop Field/Capability Verification (P2/P25): NICs verify hop fields and capabilities before data enters the channels.
Firewall Checkpoints: Represent points of inspection by the out-of-band firewall.
Channel Manager: Dynamically manages traffic flow and access control, receiving input from the DTMS (trust policies) and MSM (threat intelligence). It sends rerouting signals to the channels, visualized as dynamic lane markings or traffic signals.
Out-of-Band Firewall (P3): Operates independently, providing an additional layer of security.
Quantum-Resistant Gateways (P5): Secure tunnels for external communication.
External Systems/Zones (P5, P22) & Legacy Systems: Destinations for network traffic.

ASKA Hub: Houses the DTMS (Patent 4) and MSM (Patent 2), providing crucial information to the Channel Manager.

Key Features and Enhancements:

Quantum Highway Metaphor: The highway analogy effectively communicates the flow of data packets through different security channels.

Dynamic Rerouting: The Channel Manager's control over traffic flow and the visual representation of rerouting signals emphasize the adaptive nature of the network.

Security Checkpoints: The firewall checkpoints clearly illustrate the security measures in place.

Secure External Connections: The Quantum-Resistant Gateways and connections to external systems/zones highlight secure external communication.
