What is an AI agent security teardown?

A teardown runs your agent the way an attacker will — hostile tickets, poisoned pages, malicious retrieval results, tool-description drift, consent spoofing, and exfiltration pressure. It maps which source crossed into which action, then turns each failure into a rule the runtime can enforce.

TL;DR
  • Attack first: exercise the full agent loop, not just the prompt.
  • Map each exploit path from untrusted source to privileged sink.
  • Convert findings into source-to-sink policy.
  • Keep the exploit replay as a regression test.

From finding to control

A report without enforcement is a screenshot of yesterday’s risk. Each teardown finding becomes an enforced rule and a replay — see agentic AI red teaming and the anonymised teardown example.

Frequently asked questions

How is a teardown different from a pentest?
A teardown targets the agent's context-to-action paths — how untrusted context influences tools, memory, and egress — rather than the whole application's network or web perimeter.
