Status: Placeholder content. This page will grow into The Registry’s primary entry point for security, trust, and governance topics.
The Security, Trust & Governance pillar recognizes that agentic commerce is not just about new protocols and feeds – it’s also about:
- Identity and authentication for humans, organizations, and agents
- Permissions and access control for tools and data
- Fraud prevention and risk management
- Policy, compliance, and oversight in regulated environments
This placeholder does not prescribe specific solutions. Instead, it marks where The Registry will:
- Summarize relevant security and identity standards
- Describe how different approaches show up in ACP, ACK, AP2, MCP-based systems, and related frameworks
- Connect security and governance practices directly to ACRI™ readiness dimensions
Topics this section will cover later
When fully developed, this pillar is likely to include articles such as:
- “Designing safe permission models for AI agents”
- “Governance checklists for regulated industries adopting agentic commerce”
- “How fraud and abuse patterns change when agents transact on behalf of users”
Each piece will aim to be:
- Neutral with respect to vendors
- Concrete enough for practitioners and regulators
- Clearly linked to the other pillars of The Registry
Why this placeholder is in place now
For now, this page’s role is simple:
- Anchor the
security-trust-governancepillar tag - Allow us to test layouts, related-posts logic, and navigation
- Provide a transparent signal that security and governance are first-class concerns, even while detailed content is still in development
As real guidance and examples are ready, they will replace this placeholder with substantive material.
