OpenNHP
OpenNHP is an open-source, cryptography-powered Zero Trust network hiding protocol for the AI era. It makes infrastructure invisible by default — no exposed IPs, no open ports, no DNS discoverability before authentication. Backed by the Cloud Security Alliance and being standardised at the IETF.
Core Pages
- Vision: Why the Internet is becoming a Dark Forest and how Zero Visibility addresses AI-era threats. Covers the shift from Zero Trust to Zero Visibility.
- Specification: Technical specification of the NHP protocol — architecture, components, cryptographic design, and packet format.
- Open Source: The OpenNHP open-source project, GitHub repository, contributors, and how to get involved.
- Research: Academic papers and standards documents — CSA specification and IETF Internet-Draft.
- Demo: Live demonstration of OpenNHP's Zero Visibility capabilities.
- Community: Discord, GitHub Discussions, and community resources.
- Documentation: Full developer and operator documentation.
Blog
- The Internet Is Becoming a Dark Forest — And AI Is the Hunter: How AI is transforming network threats, why visibility equals vulnerability, and how Zero Visibility architecture (OpenNHP) addresses the AI-era attack surface. References PentAGI (autonomous AI pentesting) and Claude Code Security (500+ vulnerabilities found in production codebases).
Key Concepts
- Zero Visibility: Infrastructure is invisible until cryptographic identity is proven. No exposed IPs, no open ports, no DNS discoverability before authentication.
- Zero Trust vs Zero Visibility: Zero Trust verifies identity after contact. Zero Visibility eliminates the attack surface before contact is possible.
- NHP (Network Hiding Protocol): The underlying protocol that enforces cryptographic identity-first connectivity.
- Dark Forest Theory: From Liu Cixin's sci-fi novel — any entity that reveals its location will be targeted. Applied to AI-era network security: visibility equals vulnerability.
