SentinelAgent defines seven properties for verifiable delegation chains in multi-agent AI systems and reports a protocol achieving 100% true positive rate at 0% false positives on a 516-scenario benchmark while using TLA+ to verify six deterministic properties.
Coding agents struggle to infer least-privilege file permissions by omitting needed accesses while granting unused or sensitive ones, but Sufficiency-Tightness Decomposition improves sensitive-task success by up to 15.8% and reduces attacks.
Identifies concrete attacks from a malicious Provider on SAGA and proposes SAGA-BFT, SAGA-MON, SAGA-AUD, and SAGA-HYB mitigations offering different security-performance trade-offs.
ClawNet digitizes human collaborative relationships into a network of identity-governed AI agents that collaborate on behalf of their owners through a central orchestrator enforcing binding and verification.
No agent system can be accountable without auditability, which requires five dimensions (action recoverability, lifecycle coverage, policy checkability, responsibility attribution, evidence integrity) and mechanisms for detect/enforce/recover.
No existing AI security framework covers a majority of the 193 identified multi-agent system threats in any category, with OWASP Agentic Security Initiative achieving the highest overall coverage at 65.3%.
Safety constraints in LLM-based multi-agent systems commonly weaken during execution through memory, communication, and tool use, requiring them to be maintained as explicit state rather than asserted once.
MAGIQ introduces a post-quantum governance system for multi-agent AI that supports policy budgets, session enforcement, message attribution, and UC-based security proofs while comparing overhead to SAGA.
Defines consent chain degradation in multi-robot systems and proposes the CoRVE three-layer governance architecture plus regulatory gap analysis.
AITH provides a continuous delegation protocol with ML-DSA signatures, a six-check boundary engine, push revocation, and Tamarin-verified security theorems for human-AI trust.
Argues that trustworthiness in Agent-to-Agent networks requires a new conceptual framework with four design pillars baked in from the beginning, as retrofitting existing single-agent methods is insufficient.
Proposes a portable authorization model for autonomous agents featuring issuer-authored payloads, typed constraint algebra, delegation attenuation, and fail-closed semantics to enable consistent cross-boundary enforcement.
The paper proposes a bottom-up framework for safe agentic AI systems that treats each component as a dual-use interface where added capabilities also expand attack surfaces across single agents, multi-agent systems, and interoperable ecosystems.
LLM agents enable universal interoperability by serving as automatic translators and adapters between proprietary digital services.
