- Solution brings together advanced multi-agent orchestration, verifiable compute, and enterprise blockchain attestations to deliver transparent and accountable AI workflows
- Powered by NVIDIA DGX Cloud, the solution delivers a new standard of trust with verifiable sovereignty to ensure at-scale AI solutions meet standards of compliance at runtime
- Showcased at the NVIDIA GTC DC conference presented the agentic tabletop exercise to help illustrate to government how these systems can support AI-assisted emergency management services and cyber incident response strategies
WASHINGTON, Oct. 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — In a major milestone for agentic AI and public-sector innovation, the Hedera Foundation and EQTY Lab announced the launch of Verifiable Governance and Sovereignty for AI agents. This system brings together Hedera’s enterprise blockchain protocols and EQTY Lab’s AI Guardian solution for verifiable governance on chain. This solution has been integrated into a multi-agent gateway developed by Accenture to showcase how to enable greater observability and enforcement of specific data and compute polices in AI agentic solutions.
Government agencies or regulated enterprises may use these capabilities to enhance auditability of complex multi-agent systems and obtain encrypted attestations that will provide verifiable adherence to governance and compliance to enterprise policies. Running on NVIDIA DGX Cloud, the reference solution will support immutable verifiability of nation-state and regional sovereignty controls for AI agentic provenance and accountability across government, public safety, and critical infrastructure.
Evolving New Standard for Verifiable Governance
As governments scale their use of autonomous AI agents, the complexity and risks of these systems require a new paradigm for creating verifiable controls across automated and human workflows.
EQTY Lab introduced a new verifiable digital trust layer for validating the security, trustworthiness, and auditability of AI agentic systems. By anchoring agentic orchestration tooling onto blockchains such as the Hedera Consensus Service, the integrated implementation delivers novel, hardened proofs for all agent and human-supervised actions, decisions, and data interactions.
In binding these attestations to sovereign regulatory and operational policies, the compliance of autonomous systems can be continuously monitored and verified at runtime. This marks an important advancement in AI agentic trust and demonstrates the utility of blockchain to securely register tamper-proof attestations.
Accelerating Trusted AI Adoption
A demonstration at NVIDIA GTC in Washington D.C. this week showcased a breakthrough technology reference architecture and training protocol for rapid and efficient implementation of agentic solutions in government agencies. Included was a novel tabletop exercise designed to help government agencies train personnel and simulate real-world scenarios for integrating agentic tools into AI-assisted emergency management and cyber incident response. This first-of-its-kind training methodology, implemented into a multi-agent framework was designed by Accenture running on NVIDIA DiGX Cloud for Hedera. This will help personnel develop the practical expertise needed to supervise, audit, and govern large-scale agentic systems in accordance with state and federal regulations.
By combining verifiable trust infrastructure with comprehensive training, the initiative addresses the complete lifecycle of AI adoption with the highest standards of accountability and oversight needed for AI deployments in the public sector.
