## 📚 **Scenario Overview**
This scenario demonstrates how hermes agents act as compliance agents by participating in governance, enforcing security policies, and monitoring regulatory adherence on the AITBC network.
### **Use Case**
An hermes agent acts as a compliance agent to:
- Participate in governance voting
- Enforce security policies
- Monitor regulatory compliance
- Generate compliance reports
- Handle policy violations
### **What You'll Learn**
- Participate in governance decisions
- Enforce security and access policies
- Monitor compliance across the network
- Generate compliance reports
- Handle policy violations
### **Features Combined**
- **Governance** (Scenario 17)
- **Security** (Scenario 19)
- **Analytics** (Scenario 18)
---
## 📋 **Prerequisites**
### **Knowledge Required**
- Completed Scenarios 17, 19, and 18
- Understanding of regulatory compliance
- Governance and security concepts
### **Tools Required**
- AITBC CLI installed
- Python 3.13+
- Wallet for governance operations
- Access to governance and security services
### **Setup Required**
- Governance module accessible
- Security service running
- Analytics service available
### **Wallet Authentication**
For compliance operations requiring wallet signing, use one of these methods:
```bash
# Interactive prompt (default)
aitbc compliance init --wallet my-wallet --policies security,governance
# Password file (recommended for scripts)
aitbc compliance init --wallet my-wallet --policies security,governance --password-file /path/to/password.txt
# Environment variable
export KEYSTORE_PASSWORD=mypassword
aitbc compliance init --wallet my-wallet --policies security,governance
```
**Security Best Practices:**
- Use password files with restricted permissions (chmod 600)
- Store password files outside the repository
- Avoid hardcoding passwords in scripts
---
## 🔧 **Step-by-Step Workflow**
### **Step 1: Initialize Compliance Agent**
Set up a compliance monitoring agent.
```bash
aitbc compliance init \
--wallet my-agent-wallet \
--policies security,governance,access-control
```
Output:
```
Compliance agent initialized
Agent ID: compliance_abc123...
Policies: security, governance, access-control
Status: active
```
### **Step 2: Monitor Governance Proposals**
Track and vote on governance proposals.
```bash
aitbc governance list --wallet my-agent-wallet
```
Output:
```
Governance Proposals:
Proposal ID Title Status Vote Deadline
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
prop_abc123... Upgrade to v2.0 pending 2026-05-05
prop_def456... Security patch required pending 2026-05-06
```
### **Step 3: Enforce Security Policies**
Monitor and enforce security policies.
```bash
aitbc compliance enforce \
--agent-id compliance_abc123... \
--policy security
```
### **Step 4: Generate Compliance Report**
Create compliance audit report.
```bash
aitbc compliance report \
--agent-id compliance_abc123... \
--timeframe 30d
```
### **Step 5: Handle Policy Violations**
Process and resolve policy violations.
```bash
aitbc compliance violations --agent-id compliance_abc123...
```
