DigiCert adds AI agent identity to NVIDIA safety platform
Digicert announced support for NVIDIA Open Agent Safety Platform, adding AI agent identity and policy controls. The platform centers on NVIDIA OpenShell, an open, secure runtime that enforces policy outside the agent’s process and logs every allow‑or‑deny decision. DigiCert’s AI Trust Manager complements this by issuing cryptographically signed AI Passports that verify an agent’s identity and…
Key points
- DigiCert supports NVIDIA Open Agent Safety Platform, adding AI agent identity and policy controls.
- AI Trust Manager issues cryptographically signed AI Passports and policy‑based visas, enabling verifiable identity and authority.
- NVIDIA OpenShell enforces policy outside the agent process and logs all decisions, preventing compromised agents from overriding restrictions.
The combined solution addresses two core needs for autonomous AI: identifying which agent is acting and controlling what it can do. OpenShell’s boundary enforcement means a compromised agent cannot override restrictions, while DigiCert’s passports allow independent verification across organizational boundaries. The integration also supports signed AI Bill of Materials for verification before execution and creates auditable evidence for governance.
By extending PKI‑based identity to AI agents, the partnership aims to give enterprises a robust framework for managing agent lifecycle, authority, and compliance as AI systems become more pervasive.
