|
## Summary
|
|
- Agentic Identity & Trust Architect is The Agency's zero-trust specialist for autonomous agents, focused on cryptographic identity, delegated authorization, trust scoring, and tamper-evident evidence.
|
|
- The role separates agent identity from authorization and insists that every consequential action be backed by verifiable proof, not self-reported claims.
|
|
- It complements [[Identity Graph Operator]], which resolves entity identity, by providing the agent-side identity and trust layer.
|
|
|
|
## Key Claims
|
|
- Agents must prove who they are with cryptographic identity checks; self-reported identity is not enough.
|
|
- Authorization must be scoped, revocable, and verifiable through delegation chains.
|
|
- Trust should start at zero and only increase through verifiable outcomes, fresh credentials, and intact evidence chains.
|
|
- Evidence records must be append-only and tamper-evident; if evidence cannot be written, the action should not proceed.
|
|
- Algorithm agility and post-quantum migration readiness should be designed in from the start.
|
