OWASP agentic security is an initiative by the Open Web Application Security Project that provides security guidelines, threat models, and best practices for protecting autonomous AI agents and agentic systems. It focuses on mitigating risks such as unauthorized access, tool misuse, memory poisoning, data leakage, and unsafe autonomous behavior across the agent lifecycle.
Why it matters: Adopting OWASP-aligned principles helps organizations identify and reduce common vulnerabilities in agentic AI, ensuring safer, more trustworthy autonomous systems.
