Orthonode Infrastructure Labs™ | Nexus Protocol (Prototype)

v1.4.7 [ZERO-TRUST INGRESS] | Zero-Trust Edge Execution Layer

Orthonode Infrastructure Labs™ is a universal zero-trust gateway for DePIN hardware. By replacing ephemeral tunnels with a persistent Cloudflare Zero-Trust Ingress, Nexus establishes a hardened, identity-aware link between edge devices and the controller—enforcing the Verify-then-Execute standard at the point of ingress.

🏗️ Infrastructure Architecture: The Cloudflare Backbone

Nexus decouples the "Ingest Layer" from the public internet. All hardware nodes communicate through encrypted Cloudflare Tunnels, ensuring:

• Zero-Exposure: Devices remain behind NAT with no public IPs or open ports.
• Identity-Gating: Authentication is enforced at the Cloudflare Edge; only verified hardware can reach the Nexus Controller.
• Deterministic Ingress: A hardened pipe for local-first verification logic and status signaling.

⚡ Core Logic: Verify-then-Execute

Nexus moves the "Moment of Truth" to the edge. It validates physical sensor integrity and hardware context before triggering protocol-level execution.

⚡ Operational Status

• Ingress: Hardened via Cloudflare Zero Trust (Native Tunneling).
• Execution: Deterministic economic routing (60/30/10 invariant enforced at runtime).
• Security: Fail-Closed Strategy. If the verification heartbeat halts, the upload interface is programmatically disabled.
