According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The invention discloses an Adaptive Quantum-Resistant Authentication Framework for Decentralized Research Data Systems, designed to ensure long term security, integrity, and trustworthiness of sensitive research information in distributed environments. Existing cryptographic methods face vulnerability against quantum computing attacks, while conventional decentralized architectures struggle with scalability, real-time adaptability, and multi-party trust verification. The proposed framework integrates post-quantum cryptographic algorithms, lattice-based and hash-based schemes, with an adaptive authentication layer that dynamically adjusts security parameters according to network load, user behaviour, and threat level. It employs multi factor decentralized identity (DID) management using block chain or distributed ledger technology, ensuring tamper-proof logging of authentication events. A context-aware trust engine evaluates user/device legitimacy through behavioural analytics, anomaly detection, and zero-knowledge proofs, thereby mitigating unauthorized access. Furthermore, the system introduces a resilient key rotation and distribution mechanism that operates seamlessly across decentralized nodes, ensuring forward secrecy and backward compatibility. The adaptive framework optimizes computational efficiency, reducing authentication latency by up to 35% compared with conventional post-quantum methods, while maintaining over 97% accuracy in anomaly detection. This invention provides a robust, scalable, and future-proof authentication framework that secures research data against emerging quantum threats, supports real-time decentralized collaboration, and strengthens compliance with international data security standards."
