Docs

Strengths

  • SPIFFE IDs as IAM principals
  • Auto-rotated 24-hour X.509 certificates
  • Works with VPC-SC and PAB

Practitioner note

Natural choice for agents on Agent Runtime, Gemini Enterprise or Cloud Run; identities are scoped to Google Cloud, so cross-cloud agents still need a broker or federation.

EU AI Act obligations

Risk tier: Not applicable · as of 2026-08-23

Source-backed information mapped from Google Agent Identity's tracked risk tier — not legal advice. Obligations depend on how your organisation deploys the system; see the full obligation reference and timeline.

This record's EU AI Act risk tier is marked not applicable, so no tier-specific obligations attach. Deployers embedding it in an AI system in scope of the Act should assess that system's own tier.
