MUMBAI, India, Aug. 17 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641096631 A) filed by Vellore Institute Of Technology on August 10, 2026, for System And Method For Asynchronous Witness-Forging And Edge-To-Ledger State Synchronization.

Inventors include Swarna Priya Rm; Vedansh Gupta; Siddharth Goutam Kumar; and Yash Kumar Singh.

The application for the patent was published on August 14, 2026, under issue no. 33/2026.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a blockchain-assisted Zero Trust telemetry provenance management system for enabling scalable, privacy-preserving, and continuous security verification in distributed computing environments. The system employs a dual-state volatile memory buffer (102) that receives high-frequency edge telemetry (101) and continuously compresses the telemetry stream into a constant-size cryptographic accumulator (104). A state transition analyser (103) monitors behavioural patterns and identifies security-relevant execution changes to initiate an epoch freeze protocol (105). An asynchronous witness forger (106) generates a cryptographic witness representing the finalized telemetry state, which is transmitted through a secure network layer (107) to a remote validation server (108). Smart contract verification (109) validates the witness to establish immutable cryptographic provenance (110) without transferring raw telemetry data. The invention reduces blockchain storage overhead, network latency, and computational burden while maintaining continuous trust verification and tamper-evident auditing for Zero Trust architectures.
