Learn how to secure multi-agent AI systems with cryptographic identity using Keyfactor EJBCA and AWS services. This reference architecture combines signed request envelopes, user-signed delegation assertions, RFC 8693 audience-scoped tokens, and real-time OCSP revocation to prove agent identity and prevent request forgery across agent-to-agent and MCP tool calls.

Excerpt from the source

When AI agents access databases, APIs, and sensitive business operations, establishing cryptographic identity through X.509 public key infrastructure (PKI) becomes a critical requirement. The core challenge is proving which agent made a request, preventing forgery between agents, and confirming that each agent acts only on behalf of an authorized user. Traditional approaches such as sharing API keys between components or passing OAuth tokens through agent chains fall short of the zero-trust…
