Infoblox, a pioneer in hybrid, multi-cloud networking and pre-emptive security, and GoDaddy Inc., a pioneer in domain registration and internet infrastructure, announces support for complementary open standards designed to help AI agents identify, discover and verify one another across the open web.
Infoblox is advancing DNS for AI Discovery (DNS-AID), an open, interoperable approach for agent discovery built on existing Domain Name System (DNS) infrastructure. GoDaddy is helping develop Agent Name Service (ANS), an open standard focused on agent identity, naming and verification using DNS and public key infrastructure (PKI). Both efforts are complementary and are being developed in community standards bodies with the explicit goal of enabling independent implementations and avoiding single- or concentrated-vendor control.
