The 2026 development
LexisNexis Risk Solutions introduced agent-focused identity and fraud intelligence.
The governance gap
An agent identity is not only a keypair. It includes the operator, the model, the purpose, the delegation chain and the accountable human, and those attributes change over time.
Where CAIN-42 fits: Moat 1 — Trust State
Core question: Who do we trust right now? Evidence-backed trust computed at the moment of the action, never a static badge.
Represent the agent as a composite identity with an operator, a workload, a purpose and a delegation history. Trust is computed from that record and decays when the evidence is stale.
How the wiring works
- Register the agent with operator, workload and purpose.
- Record the model and tool versions it runs.
- Compute trust from current evidence, not from registration alone.
- Decay or revoke when the record is stale.
What is real today
LIBRARY Production code and tests exist in this repository; there is no hosted route for this exact use.
Composite identity and workload-identity primitives exist. No credit-bureau data or LexisNexis integration exists.
| Component in this repository | What the module says it is |
|---|---|
cain/cain_crypto_identity.py | CAIN Cryptographic Identity and Provenance Engine (Module M3 — Evolution 2). |
cain/spiffe.py | CAIN Trust Fabric - SPIFFE / SPIRE Workload Identity Bridge (Phase 3) |
cain/argus/lease.py | CAIN ARGUS — the Autonomous Assurance Lease (Prompt 14, section 9). |
cain/runtime/fingerprint.py | CAIN Sovereign — Agent Behavioural Fingerprint (Prompt 7, Phase 10). |
Descriptions are the first line of each module's own docstring, read without importing it. A module path is a pointer into this repository, not a hosted endpoint. Its existence is checked by the test suite; its status for this use is the label above.
