FEDERATED IDENTITY · ZERO-TRUST ACCESS

Sovereign Identity

Every user, agent, and workload has a verified identity and scoped permissions. The AI OS integrates with your existing identity provider and enforces zero-trust access on every action — including the ones taken by AI agents.

Federated Identity

Integrate your existing identity provider via SAML, OAuth 2.0, and OIDC for unified access control.

Identity-Aware Agents

Every AI agent runs with its own scoped identity and can only access what it is explicitly authorised to.

Zero-Trust Access

Continuous verification and complete, attributable audit trails on every action across the platform.

Definition

Sovereign identity is the federated identity and access foundation of the AI OS: every human, AI agent, and workload is authenticated through your own identity provider and authorised per action under zero-trust policy, with complete, attributable audit trails — so AI agents act under the same governed identity model as people.

Autonomous agents that act on real systems need identities just like people do. Sovereign identity gives every actor — human or AI — a verified identity, scoped permissions, and an audit trail, all anchored to your existing identity provider. Crucially, we federate authentication to your provider, but authorisation and enforcement stay with the platform inside your perimeter — federating identity never means surrendering control.

Federated IAM (SAML/OIDC)

The AI OS only works if it can be trusted. Every layer of the platform rests on a zero-trust infrastructure and identity foundation that operates consistently from fully air-gapped on-premises deployments through to hyperscale cloud environments. Sovereignty is not a feature added on top — it is the condition under which everything else operates.

  • Zero-trust architecture: Continuous verification for every request, every user, and every workload — no implicit trust, even inside the perimeter.
  • Federated identity: Seamless integration with your existing IdP (SAML, OAuth 2.0, OIDC) for unified, policy-enforced access control.
  • Air-gapped deployment: Run the complete platform with no external network dependencies — ideal for defence, critical national infrastructure, and classified workloads.
  • Confidential computing: Hardware-level encryption of data in use via AMD SEV-SNP and Intel SGX, protecting workloads even from infrastructure administrators.

IDENTITY & ACCESS

One governed identity model for people and agents

Sovereign identity extends the same access model to humans, AI agents, and workloads. Instead of agents running with broad, unaccountable access, each operates under a scoped identity tied to your IdP and policy.

  • Bring your own IdPConnect existing identity providers via SAML, OAuth 2.0, and OIDC.

  • Federated, not surrenderedWe federate authentication to your provider — but authorisation, policy, and enforcement stay with the platform, inside your perimeter.

  • Scoped permissionsGrant least-privilege access per user, agent, and workload.

  • Identity for agentsEvery AI agent acts under its own verifiable, governed identity.

  • Full audit trailEvery action is attributable and reviewable for compliance.

WHY IT MATTERS

Autonomy you can hold accountable

Agentic AI is only safe to deploy when every action can be attributed and contained. By giving agents the same identity, scoping, and audit as people — and anchoring it to your own identity provider — sovereign identity makes autonomous systems accountable and keeps control where it belongs: with you.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is sovereign identity?+
Sovereign identity is the federated identity and access foundation of the AI OS. Every human, AI agent, and workload is authenticated through your own identity provider and authorised per action under zero-trust policy, with complete, attributable audit trails.
Which identity providers are supported?+
The platform integrates with your existing identity provider through standard protocols — SAML, OAuth 2.0, and OIDC — so access control stays unified with the rest of your organisation rather than siloed in a separate system.
If identity is federated, who controls access?+
You do. We federate authentication to your existing identity provider, but the platform keeps control of authorisation: every access decision, policy, and enforcement point — for people and AI agents alike — stays within the platform and your perimeter. Federating identity never means surrendering control.
How do AI agents get an identity?+
Each AI agent is issued its own scoped identity, so it can only access what it is explicitly authorised to and every action it takes is attributable. Agents are governed by the same identity and policy model as human users.
Is every action audited?+
Yes. Every action by a user, workload, or agent is logged, attributable, and reviewable — providing the complete audit trail that regulated industries require.
Does identity work in air-gapped deployments?+
Yes. The identity and zero-trust access model runs consistently from fully air-gapped on-premises environments through to hyperscale cloud, integrating with the identity providers available in your environment.
