Good questions make stronger systems.
Short answers to the questions teams ask during an evaluation. Final behavior depends on the product, deployment, and integration configuration.
Common questions
Start with the trust boundary.
Each answer points to a deeper page or a discussion with the team.
Does KAKR collect biometric data?
Device-native biometrics may unlock a local authenticator where supported. Ask about your deployment →
Can AI agents or robots be authorized?
The PTERI model describes distinct machine actors, delegated scopes, verified commands, and evidence across people, agents, robotic systems, and existing applications. See the system model →
Does PTERI replace our identity provider?
Not necessarily. A focused evaluation can put a verification boundary around a sensitive action while existing identity and application systems continue to operate. Explore solutions →
Does the PTERI Standard guarantee cyber-insurance coverage?
No. It is a KAKR-authored control and evidence framework, not an insurer’s underwriting rule or a coverage promise. Brokers and carriers make their own decisions. Read the framework →
Where do developers begin?
Define one actor, one consequential action, and the evidence your verifier needs. Then use the maintained documentation and a test environment for the implementation. Developer overview →
