The release of the OWASP Top 10 for Agentic Applications (2025) marks one of the most important milestones in AI security to date. Why? Because for the first time, industry experts, global researchers, and AI security leaders—including contributors from NIST, the European Commission, and the Alan Turing Institute—have provided a data‑driven, peer‑reviewed framework outlining the real threats facing organizations deploying generative and agentic AI systems. And the verdict is clear:

Agentic AI introduces a fundamentally new class of risks—risks that traditional security tools cannot detect, prevent, or mitigate.

As businesses rapidly adopt AI agents, autonomous workflows, and LLM-powered assistants, the OWASP Top 10 is no longer “nice to have” guidance… it’s a survival manual.

Why the OWASP Top 10 Agentic AI Risks Matter The report highlights threats that many organizations don’t even realize are happening inside their environments, including:

• Agent Behavior Hijacking — attackers manipulating AI agents into executing harmful actions
• Tool Misuse & Exploitation — agents calling APIs, internal tools, or SaaS apps in unintended ways
• Identity & Privilege Abuse — agents escalating permissions or bypassing identity controls
• Training Data Poisoning — corrupting model learning to alter outputs
• Prompt Injection & Output Manipulation — tricking AI into revealing secrets or making unsafe decisions
• Data Leakage — sensitive information embedded or returned in model outputs
• Model Denial of Service — disrupting agentic systems to halt business operations
• Insecure Plugin Architectures — vulnerabilities in AI extensions, tools, and integrations

These risks aren’t theoretical—they are active, real‑world attack vectors, observed across finance, healthcare, SaaS, retail, government, and manufacturing.OWASP’s conclusion is blunt:

“Companies are already exposed to Agentic AI attacks—often without realizing agents are running in their environments.”

This is exactly why Cyber Buyer now offers a new portfolio of AI security vendors purpose‑built to help organizations detect, prevent, and govern these risks before they become costly incidents.

Cyber Buyer Vendors Specifically Address the OWASP Top 10 Agentic AI Threats

To help organizations operationalize OWASP’s guidance, Cyber Buyer now provides access to advanced AI security platforms that directly mitigate these new attack vectors. Below is how our vendors align to the OWASP Top 10:

Prompt Security Solves: Prompt Injection, Tool Misuse, Data Leakage, Shadow AI Prompt Security provides full visibility into:

• Unauthorized GenAI use
• Dangerous prompts
• Sensitive data exposure
• SaaS + browser-level interactions

With real-time AI redaction, enforcement policies, and browser-native protections, Prompt Security ensures agents operate inside guardrails—and never leak data or execute malicious instructions.

HiddenLayer — ML Detection & Response Solves: Model Extraction, Model Poisoning, Adversarial Inputs, Agent Hijacking HiddenLayer protects the AI model itself—something OWASP emphasizes heavily. Capabilities include:

• AISEC platform for continuous model monitoring
• Detection of adversarial inputs
• Model vulnerability scanning (PII, secrets, bias, poisoning)
• Protection against model theft, manipulation, and data inversion

HiddenLayer protects the brain behind your AI agents.

Truyo — AI Governance & Compliance Solves: Data Privacy Gaps, Regulatory Exposure, Unsafe AI Adoption OWASP stresses that governance is foundational. Truyo delivers:

• AI risk assessments
• Governance workflows
• Privacy controls for AI agents
• Compliance alignment (GDPR, CCPA, U.S. AI Act, upcoming EU AI Act)

Truyo ensures your AI is not just secure… but also audit-ready.

LayerX, Talon Cyber Security, Seraphic Security — Browser & SaaS Agent Protection Solves: Insecure Plugin Architectures, Tool Exploitation, API Misuse, Privilege Abuse Many agentic attacks occur inside browsers, where:

• LLM extensions run
• Tools execute calls
• APIs connect
• Agents take user actions

These platforms transform the browser into a governed, monitored, secured AI workspace—closing one of the biggest blind spots highlighted by OWASP.

Why Organizations Must Act Before Agentic Attacks Escalate

AI adoption is accelerating faster than any technology before it. But according to OWASP:

• Most companies already have agentic AI running—without IT oversight.
• Attackers are exploiting these systems today, with real incidents emerging across industries.
• Existing cybersecurity tools are not designed for AI security.

Enterprises face a stark reality:

If you don’t secure your AI systems now, you’ll be securing them after a breach.

Cyber Buyer exists to make sure you never reach that point.
