Agent trust for
federal and defense

When agents cross contractor boundaries or operate across classification levels, trust isn't optional — it's mission-critical.

The challenge

Multi-contractor environments, cross-agency data sharing, and joint operations all depend on agents that can work together without compromising security posture. NIST 800-53 controls mandate rigorous access management. Zero-trust architectures require continuous verification.

Agents need the same governance that humans get — identity verification, need-to-know enforcement, and complete audit trails. But they operate at machine speed across organizational boundaries that traditional IAM systems weren't designed for.

How SettleBridge helps

NIST Alignment

Built with NIST AI RMF and 800-53 controls in mind. Trust policies map directly to control families, making ATO documentation straightforward.

Boundary Enforcement

The Economic Air Gap concept: policy-enforced boundaries that control exactly what crosses between organizations. No data leaks, no unauthorized agent interactions.

FedRAMP Path

Architecture designed for FedRAMP authorization. On-premises deployment support for classified environments. Air-gapped operation capability for disconnected networks.
