The agency said it received comments from more than 600 commenters across industry, government and academia. The project’s first implementation use case will work with DevSecOps to demonstrate identification, authentication and authorization of AI agents in the software development lifecycle. This is a planned demonstration, not a completed standard or validated product result. Further use cases will be scoped later. ## Data ### NIST plans DevSecOps demonstration for AI-agent identity NIST published feedback on identity and authorization for software and AI agents; its first implementation use case will be secure software development.
