Presence / 03 · Institutional control

Presence
Home.

Turn a Key or Layer verification into an explicit policy decision inside the systems an institution already uses.

How it works

From physical signal
to accountable action.

Home makes the request, policy owner, exception path and downstream action explicit. It does not replace the system that owns the decision.

01 / A system requests Presence

Policy calls for physical proof at a defined threshold.

The request identifies the expected person or object, the action in question and the assurance condition that must be satisfied.

Control surfaces

One environment.
Four responsibilities.

Choose a control surface to understand what Presence Home actually governs—and what remains in the institution’s existing systems.

Verification policy

Define when physical proof is required.

Specify the people, objects, actions, contexts and assurance conditions that should invoke Presence.

System boundary

Coordinate trust.
Preserve ownership.

Home makes the physical verification boundary available to the people and systems responsible for the consequential decision.

Home governs

Presence requests, trust relationships, bounded results, lifecycle, evidence and integration paths.

Existing systems retain

Identity records, transaction authority, operational state, safety logic, mission command and final action.

Deployment requires

A threat model, policy owner, exception path, data boundary, integration contract and review process.

Invite-only · integration-led

Begin with one workflow where
physical proof must become action.

Presence Home is being developed with selected institutions whose consequential workflows can define its first operating standards.
