🖥️ FDC3 3.0: Secure by Design, Ready for AI, and Easier to Build On
The FDC3 3.0 release is one of the most significant updates to the open standard in years, shifting focus toward security, observability, cross-firm interoperability, and modern usage scenarios. This milestone addresses a critical question for the industry: how do you trust what you're receiving and understand where it came from in a world increasingly dominated by web applications, APIs, and AI agents?
🤖 AI Governance Framework: MCP Server Contribution
Contribution spearheaded by Citi, this open source infrastructure acts as the intelligent middleware needed to turn standard AI agents into governed, risk-aware systems. It accelerates automated threat modeling and risk assessment by converting architectural operating landscapes into actionable, governed insights for enterprise AI agents.
