Security of 100 AI Agents Tested and Ranked – What You Need to Know
The AI Risk Quadrant evaluates AI agents based on three factors: how vulnerable they are to compromise, the potential impact of a breach, and the strength of their security defenses. The post Security of 100 AI Agents Tested and Ranked – What You Need to Know appeared first on SecurityWeek.
AI is our new leader. We just accept and do what it tells us. Maybe we should be a bit more circumspect.
Concern over the performance of AI agents has been constant, ranging from ‘leaky’ to just plain wrong decision-making. Since the pressure to use more agents more autonomously because of supercharged AI-assisted attacks is now constant, Adversa AI’s decision to measure and compare the performance and security of 100 agents across ten categories is welcome.
But the results are not. Of the 100 agents tested, and positioned within a new AI Risk Quadrant, only 11 are categorized as ‘capable well-defended’.
