Cerberus blocks the lethal trifecta at the tool boundary — see the 525-run evidence set.

Cross-organization agent authorization

Autonomous agents need accountable authority.

Bifrost enables organizations to govern agent-initiated requests across organizational boundaries.

An agent can present its delegated authority, submit a signed action proposal, and receive an authorization decision governed by the receiving organization’s policies.

Bifrost records the decision and the corresponding evidence of the exchange.

Authentication establishes identity. Delegation establishes authority. Policy determines permission. Cryptographic records preserve accountability.
