AI agent security testing.Find what it can reach before an attacker does.

Your agents do not just answer, they act: calling tools, holding credentials, moving data, triggering workflows. We test what an attacker could make them do through prompt injection, tool abuse, and excessive access, and hand your team the exact attack path and the fix.

Why now

The window from vulnerability discovery to exploitation has gone from weeks to hours.

On record

Same accreditations on every engagement.

CREST is the standard for offensive security execution. CERT-In, SOC 2 Type II, and ISO/IEC 27001 cover how SecureLayer7 handles your prompts, your agent topology, and your engagement record. Those testers have found 40,000+ vulnerabilities for 1,000+ companies across 30+ countries.

The new blast radius

An agent is only as safe as what it can reach.

AI agents act on the world. They call tools, query databases, move money, and trigger workflows, usually with standing credentials and far more access than any single task needs. That is the exposure.

A single prompt injection, a poisoned document, or one compromised tool turns that access into an incident: data exfiltrated, records deleted, actions taken in your name. Model guardrails do not stop this, because the problem is not what the model says, it is what the agent is allowed to do.

The Agent Access Assessment

Six ways an agent gets turned against you.

An agent is not a chatbot. It reads untrusted input, holds credentials, calls tools, and acts on your systems. So the real question is not whether it can be jailbroken, but what it can be made to do, and how far it can go. We test the whole agent, its tools and connectors, its identity, and everything downstream, then prove the impact end to end.

Illustration of prompt injection becoming an action
Prompt injection that becomes action
Direct and indirect injection through user input, retrieved documents, web pages, tickets, and the output of other agents, aimed not at the chat window but at making the agent act. This is where guardrails fail quietly.
Illustration of an over-empowered AI agent
Excessive agency
The agent can do far more than the task needs, and consequential actions such as deleting data, moving money, changing access, or deploying can fire without a real human gate. This is the failure behind the agents that wiped production databases.
Illustration of tool and permission abuse
Tool and permission abuse
Whether an agent can be steered into calling a tool it should not, with parameters it should not, or reaching data outside its task. Least privilege is tested, not assumed.
Illustration of MCP connector abuse
MCP and connector abuse
The Model Context Protocol servers and connectors your agents plug into: tool poisoning, hidden instructions buried in tool descriptions, and connectors that quietly grant more than they should.
Illustration of identity and secrets access
Identity, secrets, and over-broad access
Shared admin keys, over-scoped service accounts, and secrets reachable from the agent context. We test what an attacker gets the moment they steer or compromise the agent.
Illustration of lateral movement across systems

Once the agent is turned, we follow how far it actually reaches, into your databases, cloud, SaaS, and production, and hand your team the real business impact with the exact path that got there.

How we run it

Map. Attack. Prove.

SecureLayer7's offensive methodology.

Map

We inventory every agent, its tools, its credentials, and what each can reach, then draw the trust boundaries an attacker would target.

Attack

We drive injection, tool abuse, and privilege paths against the running system the way a real attacker would, chaining what we find.

Prove

Every finding ships with a working attack, the trust boundary that failed, and a fix your developers can implement. Then we re-test.

What arrives

Findings a developercan act on.

The attack that worked

A reproducible walkthrough of each finding: the input, the tool call, and the action it triggered.

The trust boundary that failed

Exactly where untrusted input reached a privileged action, so you fix the cause, not the symptom.

A developer-ready fix

Concrete remediation per finding: scoping, guardrails, human-in-loop gates, and identity changes.

A re-test

We verify every fix against the running system, so you can show the path is closed.

Offensive research

John scopes each agent engagement against your tools, credentials, and data topology, then leads the pod from kickoff through final report and re-test. The people testing your agents are the same offensive researchers who publish CVEs, not tool operators, and John signs off on every finding with a working attack against the running system.

  • Maps your agents, their tools, and their access before a single test runs.
  • Owns kick-off, mid-engagement check-ins, and a live walkthrough of every finding.
  • Drives remediation review and re-test until every tool and access path is closed.
