SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It helps teams prevent security gaps in agentic AI systems by providing a framework-grounded review of autonomous risk areas that traditional appsec checks often miss.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Agentic Architecture Security Review: Assesses multi-agent and tool-using systems against the OWASP Top 10 agentic risk categories with risk ratings and recommendations.
  • Tool, Permission, and Trust Boundary Checks: Evaluates excessive agency, tool misuse, privilege escalation, inter-agent trust, identity, and HITL bypass pathways.
  • Memory and Data Exposure Controls: Reviews persistent memory poisoning, sensitive data exfiltration via tool calls, and safeguards for state integrity and data handling.
  • Operational Safety for Agent Runtime: Examines cascading failures, human oversight bypasses, and resource exhaustion controls (token/cost budgets, loop limits, circuit breakers).

Quick Start

Use the agentic-top-10 skill to review the security of an agent deployment by analyzing its architecture and tool/permission design for the OWASP agentic threat categories.

FAQPage Schema
How do I perform an OWASP Top 10 security review for agentic AI systems?

To review agentic AI security, assess the system's architecture, tool definitions, permission models, and persistent memory against OWASP Top 10 categories. The process requires collecting identity context and error handling data to produce a structured assessment with risk ratings and mitigations.

What security risks do autonomous agents face with persistent memory and tool permissions?

Autonomous agents with persistent memory and tool permissions face risks like memory poisoning, excessive agency, and sensitive data exfiltration via tool calls. A security review identifies these vulnerabilities alongside privilege escalation and human-in-the-loop bypass pathways across multi-agent deployments.

Can I use this security review to check human-in-the-loop bypass pathways in multi-agent systems?

Yes, you can review human-in-the-loop bypass pathways in multi-agent systems by evaluating inter-agent trust boundaries and permission models. The assessment examines operational safety controls like cascading failures, loop limits, and circuit breakers to prevent unauthorized autonomous actions.

What do I need to prepare for an agentic AI threat modeling assessment?

You need to prepare architecture diagrams, tool definitions, permission models, and memory or state persistence details for an agentic AI threat modeling assessment. Collecting inter-agent communication protocols, error handling logic, and identity context ensures a comprehensive evaluation of autonomous risk areas.

Does traditional appsec cover excessive agency and memory poisoning in AI agents?

Traditional appsec checks often miss excessive agency and memory poisoning in AI agents because they lack frameworks for autonomous risk areas. A specialized agentic security review applies OWASP Top 10 categories to evaluate tool misuse, privilege escalation, and data exfiltration vulnerabilities.

When should I not use a general security review for autonomous agent deployments?

You should not use a general security review for autonomous agent deployments when you need to assess multi-agent trust boundaries, persistent memory poisoning, or human oversight bypasses. These architecture-specific risks require an OWASP Top 10 agentic framework to identify cascading failures and resource exhaustion controls.
