Community Realm
Community Realm
The Community Realm — also known as the VeilNet Public Realm — is a shared, post-quantum secure overlay network accessible to all users.
It is maintained by the VeilNet team and serves as the backbone that allows every user to freely access VeilNet by simply self-hosting a Conflux node.
By combining decentralization, post-quantum cryptography, and dynamic multi-hop routing, the Community Realm forms a new generation of privacy network — similar in spirit to TOR, but built for the modern AI, cloud-native, and post-quantum era.
Unlike TOR, the VeilNet Community Realm is:
Better Privacy
VeilNet’s global NATS super-cluster control channel enables Conflux nodes to self-organize, authenticate, and form multi-hop paths without:
- a central directory
- a list of public relay nodes
- a traceable, static topology
Because no public registry exists, participants remain invisible by design.
IP-based correlation, entry/exit node tracking, and time-correlation attacks do not apply to VeilNet’s ephemeral, dynamically bonded topology.
Every tunnel is:
- ephemeral
- anonymous
- unlisted
- recreated frequently
- indistinguishable from normal WebRTC traffic
This results in true unobservability.
Better Security
VeilNet uses NIST-approved Post-Quantum Cryptography (Kyber KEM + Dilithium DSA) and Packet-Level Authentication (PLA) to cryptographically validate every packet — not just the session.
This ensures:
- No plaintext metadata
- No long-term keys exposed (unlike WireGuard’s static pubkeys)
- No VPN signatures
- No possibility of replay or brute-force attacks
- No way to correlate packets to a specific user or device
All traffic is protected with quantum-safe identity, encryption, and routing.
Better Performance
TOR suffers from layered encryption and strictly sequential hops.
VeilNet eliminates these bottlenecks through:
- native multi-path concurrent transmission
- per-destination independent secure streams
- reinforcement-learning-powered route selection
- post-quantum keys without onion-layer overhead
- WebRTC data channel aggregation for high availability and bandwidth
As a result, VeilNet Community Realm offers:
- significantly lower latency
- higher throughput
- smoother real-time traffic (gaming/voice/video)
- better reliability across unstable networks
Performance is not just improved — it is re-architected.
Not Just Browser Traffic
TOR provides mostly browser-layer anonymity (TCP, HTTP).
VeilNet offers full Layer-3 overlay networking:
- all IP traffic
- all protocols
- all ports
- full LAN/VXLAN/container/VPC reachability
- no sub-routers required
This makes VeilNet useful for:
- multi-cloud and multi-region clusters
- distributed AI systems
- container networks
- on-prem + cloud hybrid meshes
- secure developer access
- home lab cross-site connectivity
- privacy focused personal networking
VeilNet connects entire infrastructures, not just browsers.
Why Private Realm Exists
Private Realm exists for organisations that must fully comply with internal, regulatory, and contractual policies—where shared infrastructure is not acceptable.
Unlike the Community Realm, where bandwidth and transport resources are shared, a Private Realm provides complete isolation across network capacity, routing, and control paths. This enables predictable performance, enforceable governance, and clear compliance boundaries without compromise.
Private Realms are designed for teams that require:
- Policy-compliant isolation with no shared bandwidth
- Full administrative and architectural control
- Post-quantum security guarantees
- Multi-cloud and hybrid deployment freedom
- Secure interconnects for microservices and AI workloads
- Enterprise-grade access control and segmentation
- Auditability
- Long-term privacy, resilience, and survivability
With a Private Realm, your organisation operates a dedicated, unobservable, self-healing, post-quantum secure network—purpose-built for strict compliance while seamlessly connecting everything from laptops to Kubernetes clusters to industrial systems.
