Network Reachability for Autonomous Agents
Banks are beginning to run AI agents against their own systems: software that holds delegated credentials and acts with some autonomy across internal services.
An agent can enumerate services, attempt connections, and move between hosts at a rate no analyst matches.
A security operations center evaluates this activity after the traffic reaches it. RAVID operates earlier, at the network layer that determines whether an agent can reach a service at all.
RAVID is identity-driven microsegmentation delivered as a software overlay. Microsegmentation means reachability between endpoints is controlled per connection rather than by broad network zones. An overlay is a software-defined layer that runs above the existing IP network. On that overlay, each user, agent, device, and service is addressed as a cryptographic identity - an endpoint authenticated by a credential rather than located by an IP address.
Agents are enrolled as identities, not as users issued API keys. The overlay operates default-deny: a service is not resolvable to a requester, and accepts no connection from it, until the requester authenticates and the specific connection is authorized. An agent that has not satisfied both conditions has no route to the service, and the service is not resolvable to it.
This model governs which services an agent can reach. It does not govern what an agent does once a connection is authorized, and it does not address application-layer logic or the misuse of a credential that policy currently permits. Behavioral control over an authorized agent is a separate concern, which Enigma addresses with the AI Killswitch; RAVID covers the network-reachability portion of that control.
Where the model contributes directly is containment. Because connection policy and network reachability are evaluated in one plane, revoking an identity ends its authorization and its connectivity at the same time. There is no interval in which permission has been withdrawn but a route still exists. For an agent showing unexpected behavior, revocation removes its reachability across the overlay in a single action rather than through firewall changes applied host by host.

Development Update
A short status on current work.
EPN Beta:
EPN - session-scoped, non-routable private network connectivity - is close to launch towards community beta. We’re targeting June, gated by the current review pass.
Security review:
An independent group is running penetration testing against the current build and feeding findings back into development. Resolving findings is the condition for opening the beta.
User testing:
A small testing cohort is being added this week to cover usage under varied network conditions. We’re also opening this to the community: beta testers who can exercise the build and report back will help, and we’ll post details on how to participate alongside the beta.
Integrations:
Integration and evaluation discussions are underway with several partners, including a deployment to a self-healing datacenter operator. We’ll describe each in more detail once the technical scope is confirmed and disclosable.
Next step is an internal sync before the next round of testing and deployment.
In the world of bulls where demand meets attention.. you want to hold a token which has:
- supply compression
- real world usage
- out of crypto incomes
- liquid funds' absence
at 7.77m mcap? or 3.8m since 2 funds have bought bunch of supply? Do your math.
26% + 10.9% + 9%
Q1 2026 has been costly for crypto.
Drift Protocol lost ~$285M on April 1. Admin keys compromised via months-long social engineering, fake collateral accepted by oracles, funds drained in under 15 minutes. Resolv Labs lost ~$25M after an AWS KMS breach allowed minting of 80M unbacked stablecoin tokens. A trader known as Sillytuna lost $24M in a combined on-chain and physical coercion attack. March alone totalled $52M across 20 incidents.
The pattern is consistent: static admin controls, persistent access points, and centralized key custody are the recurring failure surface. Each incident reduces participant confidence and raises the cost of onboarding new users into the ecosystem.
One design approach addresses part of this directly.
Enigma Vault fragments and distributes encrypted data across available storage resources, reassembling it only under authorized, identity-scoped access. There are no static storage endpoints to target. Access policy is enforced at the identity level, not the infrastructure level.
It doesn’t eliminate all attack surface. But it removes several of the conditions that made recent incidents possible.

$ENX | Building Secure Networks :
Tune in for an exciting podcast with the Enigma team. Joined by Harris, Colby, and Eric; this discussion “might just change how you think about protecting your digital life” in the words of Dr Cunningham (aka Dr Zero Trust).

It's happening. We’ve started bunker-testing Dupe’s biggest feature yet.
v1 of our agentic shopping tool.
It moves Dupe upstream from deals → intent, consideration, and research, allowing us to help shoppers who don’t yet know what to buy close the confidence gap.
Early feedback has been 🔥
Looking for 100 testers (prioritizing $DUPE holders).

Recap: Enigma Development Livestream
With the Enigma Protocol Network (EPN) Beta version coming to life, we used the latest team livestream to give you all a proper update about the current development status as well as important team related news. We introduced Eric Luce, our new key team member, and got a live look into the EPN demo in action. Here's what you missed:
1. New Network Security Lead
Expert Integration: We proudly welcome Eric Luce as the new Network Security Lead.
Background: Eric is a senior security engineer in the federal space and a former U.S. Marine with over nine years of service.
Specialization: He brings deep expertise in Zero Trust Architecture, electrical engineering, and full-stack development to ensure the EPN meets high-level security expectations.
-
2. Live EPN Demonstration
Native Performance: Colby showcased the macOS application which is built natively in Swift rather than using web-based wrappers like Electron for better OS integration.
User Experience: Seamless account creation and subscription process via Stripe.
Identity Management: The system automatically manages device enrollment, allowing only one account per device at a time but enabling seamless identity switching.
Resilient Connectivity: During the live demo, the EPN successfully established a secure tunnel using exit nodes that can be spun up or down globally within 2-3 minutes.
-
3. Technical Breakthroughs & Security
IPv6 Support: EPN has successfully implemented full IPv6 and IPv4 support, a feature often lacking in traditional VPNs built on older architectures.
Zero Trust for Individuals: While Zero Trust is typically reserved for massive organizations, Enigma is bringing this identity-based protection to individual users on mobile and desktop.
Smart Routing: The infrastructure uses a background ping every 10 seconds to test for latency, ensuring users are always on the most optimal route.
Remote Revocation: If a device is stolen, users can remotely disconnect and revoke access immediately to protect their data.
-
4. Agentic AI & Future Outlook
Agentic Security: We are focusing on protecting against "runaway AI" by bringing identity directly into the network connection.
The "Blast Radius": EPN allows for a "blast radius" approach, where the network can cut off communication and power to specific AI agents if they go rogue.
Beta Expansion: Our EPN Beta for the Enigma community is the next step, pending final administrative approvals from Apple and Microsoft App Stores.

We’re now in a phase where we’re closer than ever to present our first product to the public and we couldn’t be more excited about it. If you want to participate in our Beta Testing and not miss out on any news, stay tuned and join our community.
