Secure distributed system using blockchain for self-policing of autonomous agents

A method comprising:

• accessing, by a processor, a blockchain data structure, the blockchain data structure including one or more blocks including data descriptive of observations of locations of a plurality of agent devices;
• determining, by the processor and based on one or more blocks of the blockchain data structure, a behavior of an agent device of the plurality of agent devices;
• determining, by the processor, whether the behavior satisfies a behavior criterion associated with the agent device;
• and
• initiating, by the processor, a response action to inhibit the behavior of the agent device based on a determination that the behavior does not satisfy the behavior criterion.

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions that are executable by a processor to cause the processor to perform operations comprising:

• accessing a blockchain data structure, the blockchain data structure including one or more blocks including data descriptive of observations of locations of a plurality of agent devices;
• determining, based on one or more blocks of the blockchain data structure, a behavior of an agent device of the plurality of agent devices;
• determining whether the behavior satisfies a behavior criterion associated with the agent device;
• and
• initiating a response action to inhibit the behavior of the agent device based on a determination that the behavior does not satisfy the behavior criterion.
