What is a verifiable robot security layer?

A verifiable robot security layer is the checkpoint between "the system decided" and "the robot moved." Unlike endpoint detection or network security, which watch for trouble and report it after the fact, RankShield Robotics authorizes each high-consequence action before the actuator moves, binds it to a per-robot cryptographic identity, and emits a tamper-evident receipt.

How do you stop a robot from executing an unauthorized action?

You put a pre-actuation authorization gate in front of the actuator. Each high-consequence command must carry a valid signature from the robot's per-device key and pass a deny-by-default policy before the motor moves. A command that is unsigned, replayed, spoofed, or produced by a manipulated vision-language-action model is denied, and the denial is itself sealed as a verifiable receipt.

What robots and fleets does RankShield protect?

RankShield is a vendor-neutral attestation plane that rides on top of any robot stack, it does not replace your controller or ROS. It secures humanoids, autonomous mobile robots, surgical and medical robots, defense and teleoperated systems, cobots, quadrupeds, and delivery robots, across mixed-vendor fleets under one identity model.

How is attested action provenance different from an EDR agent?

Endpoint detection and response watches a device and raises alerts after suspicious behavior, it is reactive, and its own logs can be altered by whoever compromised the device. Attested action provenance is preventive and tamper-evident: it authorizes the action before motion and produces a cryptographic receipt of who approved what, chained into an append-only transparency log.

Which robotics regulations does RankShield help you meet?

The rules arriving in 2026–2027 make robot cybersecurity mandatory, and they ask for exactly what RankShield produces: provable integrity and an auditable record.
