title: "Signet Forge: Standalone C++20 Parquet library with AI-native, post-quantum, and compliance-native extensions"
abstract: >-
  Signet Forge is a standalone, header-mostly C++20 Parquet read/write library
  with zero mandatory dependencies. It uniquely ships post-quantum encryption
  (Kyber-768 KEM, Dilithium-3 signatures, X25519 hybrid KEM per FIPS 203/204),
  cryptographic AI decision audit trails compliant with MiFID II RTS 24 and
  EU AI Act Articles 12, 13, and 19, sub-microsecond streaming WAL, and a
  Parquet-native feature store with point-in-time correct retrieval.
