What is QuantumAuth?

QuantumAuth is a hardware-rooted, passwordless authentication and wallet platform designed to eliminate passwords, login screens, browser-based wallets, and fragile identity flows.

Users authenticate once on their own device. From that moment on, applications can securely verify identity and authorize actions — without handling credentials, secrets, tokens, or private keys.

QuantumAuth shifts trust away from browsers and passwords and anchors it directly in device hardware.


Core Idea: Device-Bound Identity

QuantumAuth binds identity to the user’s physical device:

  • A cryptographic key is generated and sealed inside the TPM
  • The private key never leaves the hardware
  • All authentication and signing operations happen locally
  • Nothing sensitive is exposed to apps, browsers, or websites

Identity is proven cryptographically, not through shared secrets.


Invisible Authentication (Short Version)

Users authenticate once using the QuantumAuth Client.

After that:

  • The device is trusted
  • Authentication happens automatically
  • Apps no longer need login flows
  • No passwords, tokens, cookies, or OAuth logic

From the app’s perspective, authentication becomes a single verification call.


A Secure Wallet — Without a Browser Wallet

QuantumAuth includes a hardware-secured wallet built on the same principles:

  • Wallet keys are TPM-sealed
  • No private keys in the browser
  • No seed phrases to phish or leak
  • No wallet extension managing secrets

Instead of a browser wallet, QuantumAuth uses a native client + secure extension bridge.


The QuantumAuth Extension (Security Bridge)

The browser extension does not store keys and is not a wallet.

Its role:

  • Acts as a secure bridge between the browser and the local QuantumAuth Client
  • Forwards signing requests to the client
  • Prevents direct key access from websites or browser memory

All cryptographic operations happen outside the browser, on the user’s machine.


Account Abstraction (ERC-4337)

QuantumAuth wallets are designed for Account Abstraction:

  • Smart accounts with programmable security policies
  • Hardware-backed signatures
  • Multi-factor and recovery logic
  • Policy-based transaction approval

This enables:

  • Stronger protection for high-value actions
  • Governance-safe execution
  • Institutional-grade security without degrading UX

EIP-1193 Compatibility

QuantumAuth follows EIP-1193 provider standards so it works with existing Web3 applications.

From a dApp’s perspective:

  • QuantumAuth appears as a standard provider
  • No custom wallet integration required
  • No special-case logic

Under the hood, security is dramatically stronger.


Why QuantumAuth Exists

Modern authentication and wallets fail because:

  • Passwords get stolen
  • Seed phrases get phished
  • Browser wallets are high-risk
  • OAuth and token systems are fragile
  • Apps repeatedly re-implement auth incorrectly

QuantumAuth removes these failure modes by removing secrets from apps and browsers entirely.


What QuantumAuth Enables

  • Passwordless authentication
  • Hardware-bound identity
  • Wallets without seed phrases
  • No private keys in the browser
  • Secure Account Abstraction
  • Invisible authentication for users
  • Minimal integration for developers

QuantumAuth in One Sentence

QuantumAuth is a hardware-rooted authentication and wallet platform that removes passwords, browser wallets, and seed phrases by anchoring identity and signing directly in device hardware.
