iTmethods has joined the Linux Foundation as a Silver member to help shape open standards for trusted agentic AI in regulated industries through its participation in the Fintech Open Source Foundation (FINOS) and the Agentic AI Foundation (AAIF). The move supports the company’s focus on delivering a control and assurance layer for enterprise agentic AI, enabling organizations to deploy autonomous AI systems while meeting governance, compliance and regulatory requirements. As financial institutions increasingly transition agentic AI from pilot projects to production, iTmethods’ Continuous Agentic Assurance framework provides runtime governance, tamper-evident evidence and model portability, allowing enterprises to switch AI models when needed while maintaining verifiable control for regulators. The company will contribute practical expertise gained from providing a managed and governed implementation of Fluxnova.

The FINOS-hosted orchestration platform, which applies governance and auditability to autonomous workflows in regulated environments. “In the highly regulated financial services industry, compliance must be automated, and infrastructures must be observable,” said Olivier Poupeney, Field CTO at FINOS. “That’s why we are collectively building open-source standards and tools-including the AI Governance Framework (AIGF), Common Cloud Controls (CCC), Fluxnova, and CALM, to provide the Governance-as-Code pipeline necessary to scale AI responsibly. We are excited to welcome iTmethods, whose runtime expertise will help the industry safely move agentic AI into production.” “Open standards will decide who gets trusted in the agentic era,” said Paul Goldman, CEO of iTmethods. “The missing piece in much of this work is the control and assurance layer that proves what an agent actually did. We are joining to bring that operator perspective from inside regulated environments.”
