Cryptographic identity and federation for autonomous AI agents

Agents shouldn't share static master API keys. Splyntra provisions short-lived, verifiable SPIFFE/OIDC cryptographic identities for every agent instance, enabling zero-trust mutual authentication and secure cross-organization agent federation.

agent_auth.py
python
from splyntra.identity import get_agent_identity, verify_federation

# Fetch short-lived cryptographic SPIFFE SVID for this agent
identity = get_agent_identity()
print(identity.spiffe_id)
# -> "spiffe://splyntra.cloud/org/fintech_co/agent/settlement_bot"

# Verify incoming sub-agent delegation request from partner organization
claims = verify_federation(incoming_jwt, allowed_trust_domain="bank_partner.com")
print(f"Verified Partner Agent: {claims.agent_id}")

Engineered for high-throughput autonomous agents

Every capability is built into the OpenTelemetry streaming pipeline with sub-millisecond ingestion overhead.

01Machine Identity

Cryptographic SPIFFE & OIDC Agent Identities

Issue distinct, verifiable cryptographic identities to each agent instance instead of sharing brittle, long-lived API keys.

  • Auto-rotating short-lived credentials with automated mTLS negotiation
  • Compatible with AWS IAM Roles Anywhere, GCP Workload Identity, and Azure Entra
  • Hardware-backed key storage and enterprise KMS integration
02Trust Policies

Cross-Agent Trust Policies & Mutual Auth

Enforce strict zero-trust authentication whenever agents exchange messages, delegate tasks, or invoke tools across microservices.

  • Validate caller agent authenticity before accepting tool execution payloads
  • Prevent impersonation and rogue agent injection attacks
  • Granular permission scopes attached directly to the agent's identity token
03Federation

Cross-Organization Agent Federation

Enable your enterprise agents to securely collaborate with supplier, partner, and customer agents across organizational boundaries.

  • OIDC trust domain federation between separate enterprise tenants
  • Cryptographic proof of origin attached to all cross-organization messages
  • Enforce bilateral data-sharing and privacy constraints automatically

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do AI agents need their own identity instead of user credentials?
Agents operate autonomously in background loops and interact with multiple systems. Giving an agent static admin credentials creates catastrophic privilege escalation risks. Scoped, short-lived SPIFFE identities ensure agents have minimal, auditable permissions.
Can Splyntra federate with enterprise identity providers like Okta or Azure AD?
Yes. Splyntra integrates with SAML, OIDC, and SCIM providers to bridge human enterprise identities with autonomous agent machine identities.
