For the narrow set of actions where who authorized this must be provable.
Most workforce actions should not be gated, and Yuthent does not gate them. A handful should. For those, the payroll run, the privilege grant, the bulk export, the action does not commit unless an enrolled employee signed for it, or signed the boundary it falls inside.
The Problem
Payroll authorization. Offboarding and deprovisioning. Mass data exports. Production configuration changes. Regulated employee attestations. Privileged access grants. In each case, a downstream system, a regulator, or an internal investigation must eventually answer who specifically authorized this action, at what moment, on what device.
Conventional SSO, MFA, and PAM do not produce that evidence at the action level. They produce evidence of a session. When an internal incident occurs, the audit trail shows that an account performed the action. It does not show the human, the device, the environment, or the intent.
Workforce-wide cryptographic authorization is not the answer. The cognitive cost is too high and the benefit-per-action is too low across ordinary knowledge work. The answer is a precision instrument for the narrow layer where evidence matters.
What Yuthent Provides
Cryptographic receipts for the high-stakes layer only.
Payroll authorization produces a signed proof that a specific finance officer authorized a specific payroll run for a specific period, with amount and payee list hashed into the signature.
Offboarding, system deprovisioning, and privilege grants generate cryptographic receipts produced by the authorizing manager or IT lead on their specific hardware.
Mass data access and export, especially for customer data, PHI, or PII, produces a non-repudiable record of who authorized the pull, when, on which device, with what parameters. SOX certifications, compliance sign-offs, and annual attestations gain cryptographic evidence in place of a click-through.
For AI Agents
When an employee's agent acts, you decide what it may do alone.
Workforce agents will draft, reconcile, deprovision, and export. Most of that is fine on its own. A narrow set, payroll runs, mass exports, off-boarding, privilege grants, should never execute unless the enrolled human signed for it or signed the boundary it falls inside.
The manager signs the bounds once
Inside those bounds a reconciliation or a routine export proceeds without interrupting anyone.
Outside those bounds, a person signs
A payroll run over the ceiling, an off-boarding outside the permitted action types, an export to a destination the manager did not list: the action stops and routes to the authorizing manager, who approves on their own device with a biometric, producing a receipt bound to the exact parameters.
No mandate, no action
If no mandate covers the agent, or the one it names has expired or been revoked, the action does not run at all. It does not fall back to whatever the service account still technically permits, and revocation takes effect on the next attempt.
Capability Surface
What the SDK and control plane produce for internal risk.
Per-actor hash-chained ledger
Every Authoritative-tier action by a given actor is chained to the prior. Altering one record breaks every record after it. Daily tenant anchors. Exportable for internal investigation or external audit.
Long-term audit retention
Action records leave hot storage on a daily archival export. Seven-year cold audit retention is contracted separately, past the horizon most SOX evidence programmes run to.
Regulatory Alignment
What each framework will not let you run without.
SOX ICFR / ITGC
Cryptographic evidence for the control activities that matter: payroll authorization, journal entry approvals, access grants on financial systems. Auditor-ready export.
DORA · for financial-entity workforces
Where the employer is a DORA financial entity, per-action signatures and the tamper-evident hash-chained ledger align with its ICT-risk evidence requirements.
GDPR Article 32 and equivalents
Technical measures for integrity and confidentiality of personal data are strengthened by per-action evidence on exports, bulk reads, and privilege escalations.
Alongside Your Stack
Yuthent does not replace enterprise SSO. It is a precision primitive for the narrow layer where a single authorizing human must be cryptographically identified, on a device they hold, at the moment they act.
Deployment Readiness
A deployment scopes the one internal workflow with the highest evidentiary value, commonly payroll authorization, privilege grants, or bulk data export.
Questions
Answered plainly.
Do we have to enroll the whole workforce?
No. You integrate only at the narrow high-stakes actions, payroll, off-boarding, mass export, privilege grants. The SDK footprint on ordinary knowledge work is zero.
Who decides which actions need a human?
You do, in policy, per action type, not us. Yuthent enforces the policy and produces the proof; it does not decide what is sensitive in your business.
Do you see our HR or payroll data?
No. The control plane receives action metadata, amounts and payee lists hashed into the signature, an action identifier, a counter, and the proof, never the underlying records.
Cloud or on-prem?
Hosted multi-tenant on Yuthent's Google Cloud. Because only metadata leaves, hosted is sufficient for most. Dedicated cloud and on-prem are available on request and scoped during a deployment.
