Botonom's enterprise trust layer: an agent's authority is set in the data layer

Botonom now sets each agent's authority in the data layer, holds sensitive actions for human approval, and keeps a company's own service keys encrypted.

Botonom is opening its enterprise trust layer to companies that put agents to work on live business data. The idea behind it is straightforward: what an agent is allowed to do should not depend on how carefully its instructions were written. It should be a property of the system the agent works inside.

Authority is a setting, not a sentence

Every Botonom agent works under a role, and that role decides which records it can see and which actions it can perform. The limit is applied in the data layer, so a record outside the role never reaches the agent and an action outside the role is simply not available to it. Companies that keep separate teams, brands or regions apart keep those boundaries intact when agents start working.

Sensitive work waits for a person

Not every job should run unattended. A company can require human approval for the actions it considers sensitive: the agent prepares the work, then stops, shows what is waiting and why, and continues only once someone approves. Companies that connect their own service accounts bring their own keys, and those keys are stored encrypted.

Botonom is set up as a project rather than a shelf product. During setup the company decides, together with Botonom, which systems the agents connect to, which role reaches what, and which work has to pass through a person. Companies considering Botonom for their own operations can request a meeting at botonom.com.
