Nuggets’ inclusion in Carahsoft’s GSA Schedule (No. 47QSWA18D008F) enables federal agencies to procure its decentralized identity platform through established contract vehicles, including SEWP V, ITES-SW2, NASPO, OMNIA, and E&I agreements. “Being awarded a position on the GSA Schedule represents a significant milestone for Nuggets and validates our commitment to supporting Federal agencies' digital transformation initiatives,” said Seema Khinda Johnson, Co-Founder and CCO of Nuggets. This partnership streamlines access to Nuggets’ solutions, enhancing digital trust for government operations.
As autonomous AI systems become integral to government functions, agencies face challenges in verifying the identity and integrity of both human and non-human actors. Traditional trust models, reliant on static credentials, are inadequate for AI-driven interactions. Nuggets’ platform addresses this identity authenticity crisis by providing a trust layer that secures AI agent interactions, ensuring accountability and compliance with standards like NIST IAL2, IAL3, and AAL2.
Nuggets’ platform offers a robust architecture tailored for AI governance and security:
Sovereign Identity: Provides verifiable digital identities for humans, businesses, and AI agents.
Authentication and Authorization: Ensures granular, action-level verification.
Privacy-Preserving Data Handling: Grants users full control and consent over personal data.
Multi-Rail Payments: Facilitates secure transactions across traditional and emerging systems.
Human-in-the-Loop: Supports secure approval workflows for AI actions requiring human oversight. This architecture complies with privacy-by-design principles and regulations like CCPA, GDPR, PSD2, and AML/KYC/KYB, making it ideal for federal use.
“With the addition of Nuggets to our GSA contract, Government agencies have access to next-generation identity solutions that address both current security challenges and emerging requirements for AI governance,” said Tyler Nelson, who manages the Nuggets Team at Carahsoft. Nuggets’ trust layer enables agencies to deploy agentic AI safely, improving operational efficiency while maintaining stringent security and compliance standards.
Nuggets’ integration into Carahsoft’s GSA Schedule marks a pivotal step in supporting federal agencies’ digital transformation. Recognized by Gartner for its leadership in decentralized identity wallets, Nuggets empowers government entities to navigate the complexities of AI-driven operations with secure, scalable identity solutions.
