Authenticating AI Agents in a World of Deepfakes: A Multi-Layer Framework for Establishing Trust in Autonomous Digital Entities

2026-03-03

Abstract excerpt

The rapid proliferation of agentic AI, autonomous software systems capable of executing transactions, accessing sensitive data, and acting on behalf of human users, has created an unprecedented security challenge. The existing authentication systems which developers created to authenticate human users and fixed system accounts, face their most significant authentication challenge because they need to establish the...
