How GAuth+ works

GAuth+ is used to model comprehensive authorization concepts with their corresponding data structures. This requires careful design to capture the legal nuances. Policies, attributes, roles (P*P, etc.) and other criteria Should be used for the comprehensive mapping of power of attorney. GAuth+ can represent power of attorney relationships in which the principal (power of attorney grantor, i.e. client owner and/or owner`s authorizer) transfers certain powers to the agent (power of attorney recipient).
GAuth+ includes the following, not limited to it:

  • Issuer, i.e. the individual or organization granting authority
  • Grantee as the AI system receiving authority
  • Successor as an optional attribute to name a backend AI if the primary AI is unable to act
  • Scope as to transactions, decisions or actions the AI is allowed to perform, including details geographic constraints or other conditions
  • Delegation guidelines that specify principles associated with powers transferred
  • Restrictions that define the limits of the transferred powers, e.g. value limits
  • Validity period in terms of time restrictions for temporary powers of attorney
  • Required attestations or witnesses, e.g. notary
  • Version history of authorities transferred to track its history
  • Revocation status which shows whether the power of attorney is still valid

A corresponding verification of the power of attorney by the relying party must then consider, among other things, the following:

  • Verification of powers – confirmation that the power of attorney is valid and active
  • Verification of scope – ensuring that the requested action or decision taken falls within the scope of the powers transferred
  • Status of the principal – verification of the principal’s legal capacity and the position of the authorized representative
  • Revocation handling – verification that the power of attorney has not been revoked

GAuth+ enforces the rules for powers of attorney mathematically and captures legal subtleties such as fiduciary duties, integrity requirements, or complex differences between jurisdictions. It leverages on AI in terms of the G-Agent to support the protocol.
