Foundation Raises $6.4M in Fulgur-led Round to Launch Passport Prime, a ‘Human Authority’ Device to Keep AI Agents in Check
Summary
Foundation has raised $6.4 million in a funding round led by Fulgur Ventures to launch Passport Prime, a security device labeled as “Human Authority Hardware.” Designed to mitigate risks associated with autonomous AI agents, the device provides a secure, isolated layer for verifying critical digital actions, identity management, and multi-factor authentication. Running on a proprietary Rust-based operating system called KeyOS, the hardware integrates features like Bitcoin self-custody, FIDO authentication, and encrypted storage to ensure human approval remains central in an increasingly automated digital landscape.
