🔒 OTT Cybersecurity LLC — the team behind Lyrie.ai — announced acceptance into Anthropic’s Cyber Verification Program and the public release of the Agent Trust Protocol (ATP). ATP is an open cryptographic standard that enables real-time verification of an AI agent’s identity, authorized scope, attestation status, delegation, and revocation. The protocol is royalty-free, slated for IETF submission, and a reference implementation is published under an MIT license. Lyrie positions itself as the security layer for autonomous AI agents operating on the internet.

📣 Amazon Connect now supports Default Guides for After Contact Work (ACW), automatically launching a Step-by-Step Guide when an agent enters ACW.

Professional and Enterprise plans add agentic business intelligence, governance, and expanded user support.

🔗 Amazon Quick now integrates with Vee, the AI assistant from Visier, via the Model Context Protocol (MCP), enabling HR, finance, and operations leaders to access governed workforce intelligence directly inside the Quick workspace. After connecting to Visier’s remote MCP server, users can ask natural-language questions about headcount, attrition, tenure, and open requisitions and receive answers grounded in Visier’s governed data model. Vee can also be invoked from automated Quick Flows to run recurring reviews or draft documents, and Quick augments responses with enterprise knowledge from Quick Spaces—such as budgets, policies, and plans—so answers reflect the broader organizational context. The Visier integration is available in all AWS Regions where Amazon Quick is offered.
