Alter: Zero Trust Authorization for Agents

Alter is a zero-trust identity and access control platform purpose-built for AI agents.

It sits in the middle of every AI agent interaction, verifying identity and applying fine-grained RBAC (Role Based Access Control) & ABAC (Attribute Based Access Control) to check every parameter against policy. It instantly rejects dangerous actions and provides clear audit trails logging every request/response and decision.

We are allowing developers to make autonomous agents without worrying about writing their own custom constraints to prevent agents from getting derailed and taking actions they are not supposed to. If this sounds useful feel free to reach out :)

How do you guys think about something like this in the fintech context specifically payments? Is it something that could be applicable?
srikar_alter•4h ago
Yes! Definitely. We allow users to have fine grained policies over every request originating from agents. So something like payments can have policy that constraints payment amounts, payment recipient & even the time at which the payment is being made. Since it is just in time authorization, if an agent hallucinates and sends the wrong payment the agent's request will be blocked
