OWASP Agentic AI Taxonomy in Action: From Theory to Tools

As OWASP’s Agentic Security Initiative (ASI) gains momentum, its impact is already being felt across the AI security landscape. The Agentic AI – Threats and Mitigations taxonomy is now powering real-world developer tools that embed security into the workflows of AI builders and red teams. In this post, we highlight three standout tools—PENSAR, SPLX.AI Agentic Radar, and AI&ME—that are adopting the OWASP ASI taxonomy to help teams test, defend, and build secure agentic systems. This growing ecosystem is also informing the development of the forthcoming OWASP Top 10 for Agentic AI. Join us at DEF CON and Black Hat to help shape what’s next.
