Indicio Unveils ProvenAI Platform to Secure AI Agent Authentication

Indicio has unveiled its new platform, ProvenAI, designed to enable secure authentication and data sharing between users and AI agents. The platform leverages Verifiable Credentials to establish trust, ensuring AI agents can access personal data for complex problem-solving while maintaining privacy and security.

Key Features of ProvenAI

• Trusted Authentication: Uses Verifiable Credentials to verify AI agents and users, preventing fraud and malicious bot interactions.
• Privacy Protection: Employs biometric-linked credentials and zero-knowledge proofs to authenticate users without exposing sensitive data.
• User Control: Provides explicit consent mechanisms for data sharing, aligning with privacy-preserving protocols.

Industry Applications

ProvenAI addresses critical needs in sectors like:

• Travel: Secure chatbots for booking and customer service.
• Finance: Fraud-resistant loan application processing.
• Education: Trusted AI assistants for student services.

Standards Compliance

The platform adheres to EUDI, ISO, and W3C standards, supporting credential formats like SD-JWTs, mdoc/mDL, JSON-LD, and AnonCreds. It also integrates with communication protocols such as DIDComm and OpenID4VC.

Expert Insight

"AI is moving into high-stakes spaces where identity and consent are essential," says Indicio CTO Ken Ebert. "ProvenAI gives developers the tools to build agents that can prove who they are—and who you are—securely and privately."

Why It Matters

With the rise of agentic AI, the need for Know-Your-Agent (KYA) protocols is growing. Indicio’s solution aims to be the cornerstone of this emerging trust framework, ensuring safe and verifiable AI interactions.
