Autonomous AI agents introduce a new class of security risk – one defined by behavior, autonomy, and drift rather than static vulnerabilities. This survival guide translates the OWASP Agentic Top 10 into a practical defense scorecard, helping security leaders identify where agentic risk accumulates and how to apply the right guardrails to deploy AI safely at scale.
Secure Agentic AI with Confidence
As AI agents move beyond generating content to executing actions across enterprise systems, traditional controls fall short. Static permissions and prompt-level defenses cannot govern agents that plan, adapt, and act autonomously.
The OWASP Agentic Top 10 defines this shift – highlighting behavior-driven threats such as goal hijacking, memory and context poisoning, unsafe tool use, cascading failures, and human-agent trust exploitation. These risks rarely appear as single events. They emerge through drift, compounding quietly as autonomy increases.
A Survival Guide – Not a Theory Paper
The Agentic AI Survival Guide is built to help security leaders operationalize agentic AI security immediately. Instead of abstract frameworks, it delivers a practical defense checklist and assessment grounded in the OWASP Agentic Top 10.
Inside this guide, you will find:
- Actionable mitigation guidance mapped to the OWASP Agentic Top 10
- Clear indicators of agentic risk accumulation
- A maturity model for agentic AI security
See whether your organization is operating in the Blind, Drift, or Governor zone – and what to do next.
