Dubai-founded OTT Cybersecurity LLC also unveils the Agent Trust Protocol (ATP), the first open cryptographic standard for AI agent identity, scope, and action verification — slated for IETF submission.
OTT Cybersecurity LLC, the company behind Lyrie.ai, today announced two milestones that together position the company as foundational infrastructure for the agentic AI era: acceptance into Anthropic’s Cyber Verification Program (CVP), and the public release of the Agent Trust Protocol (ATP), an open cryptographic standard for securing AI agents operating autonomously on the internet.
“Being among the first companies accepted into Anthropic’s Cyber Verification Program validates what we’ve built. Lyrie isn’t a security tool that sits alongside AI. It’s the security layer that AI runs on top of.” — Guy Sheetrit, CEO and Founder of OTT Cybersecurity LLC, the company behind Lyrie.ai
A New Layer of Security for Autonomous AI Agents
Enterprises and governments are deploying autonomous AI agents at unprecedented speed — agents that read mail, write code, move money, sign contracts, and act on behalf of human operators. The security model for those agents has not existed at enterprise scale. Lyrie was built to change that.
The Agent Trust Protocol (ATP), authored by Lyrie’s research team and now open to the public at lyrie.ai/research, is a cryptographic standard that lets any system verify, in real time, what AI agent it is communicating with, what that agent is authorized to do, and whether the agent or its instructions have been tampered with.
The protocol covers five primitives:
- Identity — who the AI agent is.
- Scope — what it is authorized to do.
- Attestation — whether it or its instructions have been tampered with.
- Delegation — who delegated authority.
- Revocation — whether that authority has been revoked.
“Every AI agent on the internet today is a stranger. You don’t know who it is, what…
