Executive Summary NL Hybrid Key is a dual-mode cryptographic access control system that combines the mathematical rigidity of Asymmetric (Public/Private) Key Infrastructure with the high velocity of Symmetric (Secret) Key sessions. The "NL" (Next-Level or Non-Linear) component refers to a dynamic key derivation function that changes the symmetric key per session without re-negotiating the asymmetric handshake.
