Should companies focus on verifying the humans behind AI agents rather than simply blocking them?
Socure has released the Agent Intelligence suite, a platform designed to identify and credential AI agents within its RiskOS system. The suite, which includes tools for detection, scoring, and credentialing, aims to solve the challenge of distinguishing non-human automated traffic from human users.
Why it matters
As AI agents increasingly handle digital tasks, they create a separation between actions and accountable human principals. Socure's platform addresses the lack of visibility into non-human traffic, which now accounts for over half of all internet activity.
The suite classifies agents using 700 distinct behavioral variables compared to previous heuristic-based filters. Socure reports that its identification system achieved 99.99% accuracy in lab testing.
The players
Socure
An identity verification company that utilizes a proprietary identity graph and RiskOS platform to service over 6,000 corporate clients.
The details
The platform functions by analyzing behavioral patterns to distinguish between legitimate automated traffic and unauthorized bot activity. The Agent Credential feature uses W3C Verifiable Credentials—a standards-based framework for digital identity—to bind an autonomous agent to a verified human principal, establishing clear accountability for digital actions.
Timeline
September 2026: Daily AI agent requests increased by over 1,700% year-over-year.
October 27, 2026: Socure launched the Agent Intelligence suite.
Q1 2027: The Agent Credential component will reach general availability.
The Tech Race
As non-human agents now account for over 50% of internet traffic, companies are racing to integrate identity protocols that govern autonomous interactions. Socure is positioning its RiskOS platform as a primary infrastructure layer for verifying these non-human actors.
Beta customers can currently utilize the Agent TrustScore feature to evaluate the behavior of agents interacting with their services. General availability for the full credentialing system, which will allow organizations to formally link agents to human principals, is scheduled for Q1 2027.
The takeaway
Socure's platform marks the beginning of formal identity management for autonomous agents in enterprise environments. Readers should watch for the Q1 2027 rollout of Agent Credential, as it will likely define the industry standard for how corporations audit AI-driven tasks.
