# About

The About page covers Civic's history building identity and authentication since 2015, and how that expertise led to the security layer for AI agents. It includes the leadership team and board of directors. The core premise: agents need the same thing humans needed, a way to prove who they are and limits on what they are allowed to do. Civic sits between agents and your tools so they never get direct access to Gmail, databases, or SaaS APIs without going through your policies first.
