AWS lays out 'Trust in Depth', a framework for expanding agent autonomy step by step
Announced October 15, 2026
Verified (fact)
AWS introduced Trust in Depth, a layered approach to expanding the autonomy of enterprise AI agents. It has five layers: scope, know, bound, observe, and prove. The core idea is that agents handle tasks whose actions can be verified on their own, while human judgment is reserved for decisions that truly require it.
Why it matters (interpretation)
As concerns about agent security incidents grow, a major cloud provider has set out operating principles for when to grant agents permissions.
