Proof of Actor is in development and does not operate a production verification service. We do not claim certifications or compliance attestations we do not hold. When that changes, this page will say so, with evidence.
Principles
How security shapes the design
Minimal data by design
The safest data is data never collected. Attestations are designed to carry claims rather than raw signals, and to request only what a policy needs.
Evidence over verdicts
Outputs are confidence and evidence signals. We do not claim any system is impossible to spoof, and we design for adversaries who adapt.
Revocable authority
Agent mandates are designed to expire and to be withdrawable by their principal, with relying services able to see that they are no longer valid.
Auditability
Consequential attestations are designed to be tamper-evident and retrievable, so decisions made on them can be reviewed.
Disclosure policy
What we explain, and what we deliberately do not
We publicly explain what Proof of Actor establishes. We are selective about how, because published detection methods become evasion guides.
We publish
- The problem, the thesis and the Actor model
- What each primitive is designed to establish
- Proposed interfaces, clearly labelled as previews
- Architecture principles and privacy commitments
We keep private
- Scoring algorithms and signal weightings
- Detection techniques and behavioural fingerprints
- Model architecture and anti-evasion systems
- Challenge-selection algorithms and fraud thresholds
- Spoof detection methods and bypass research
Responsible disclosure
Report a vulnerability
If you believe you have found a security issue in this website or any Proof of Actor system, please tell us privately so we can fix it before it is disclosed.
- Include enough detail to reproduce the issue, and the affected URL or component.
- Do not access, modify or delete data that is not yours, and do not degrade the service for others.
- Give us reasonable time to respond and remediate before public disclosure.
We will acknowledge good-faith reports, keep you informed, and credit you if you wish.
