AI agents are powerful, autonomous, and increasingly embedded in enterprise workflows. But treating them like human users is a breach waiting to happen. Discover how open standards like SPIFFE and OAuth provide the foundation for verifiable agent identity and least-privilege delegation, without reinventing the wheel.

Identity at the speed of AI. As Non-Human Identities (NHIs) far outnumber human ones — and AI agents join the mix — manual provisioning of API tokens and secrets is no longer viable. Cofide Connect is the Workload IAM control plane that closes the gap between open-standards workload identity and production-ready operations, at any scale.

Every system needs a 'bottom turtle' — a foundational root of trust — and in bare metal or edge environments, TPMs provide that anchor directly in silicon. Discover how Cofide makes hardware-backed workload identity a turnkey reality.

State-linked attackers have now confirmed what many feared — AI agents can systematically harvest credentials and move laterally through enterprise networks at a scale previously unimaginable without LLMs. Here's what it means for your workload identity strategy.

mTLS is the gold standard for workload-to-workload security, but middleboxes get in the way. We explore how the emerging WIMSE standard and HTTP Message Signatures fill the gap.

In today’s dynamic cloud environments, long-lived credentials are a critical vulnerability, exposing organisations to security breaches and operational complexity.

API keys and service account credentials authenticate possession of a secret, not the identity of the workload — and compromised credentials rank as a leading cause of security breaches. Here's why it's time to move beyond bearer tokens to cryptographic workload identity.

Most organisations still rely on long-lived credentials and secrets management for workload authentication — but shared knowledge that can be copied and misused isn't really identity at all. Cofide's founding vision: make Zero Trust practical with cryptographically verifiable workload identity, built on open standards.
