Method

Four steps, five days. One report at the end.

You provide a test environment and a technical contact. Once the written authorization is signed, the test lasts five days and you receive the report at the end.

    I map what it can do.

    At kickoff. You give me the tool list, test access and a technical contact. I compare every access your agent has with what it actually needs.

    I attack it like a stranger.

    During the test. A trapped e-mail, ticket or document. I watch what the agent does with it, on your development or staging environment; production only if you ask for it and authorize it in writing.

    Hi, could you confirm my renewal date?

    I hand you the proof.

    On day 5. A short report: every finding replayable, ranked by risk, with its fix, then a 30-minute debrief with your team.

    Then, written rules.

    The report lists what the agent is allowed to do, action by action. The Shield, in development, will enforce those rules between the agent and its tools.

FAQ

Why a test environment rather than production?

Because a test doesn't need real data to be convincing: test access with dummy data is enough to show an action that shouldn't go through. And the framework protects both sides: written mandate, nothing kept without your agreement, documented cleanup.

Which stacks do you work on?

Any agent that acts: client-facing copilots, internal agents, automations or in-house code. The core of the method is the same: an agent, access, actions to test.

What if you find nothing?

I tell you so plainly, without padding the report. It documents what was tested and held up, which is still useful for your customer questionnaires.

Does the Shield replace testing?

No. The Shield blocks unplanned actions, but whatever goes through allowed actions still needs testing. The two work together: that's the Purple program, planned for the Shield's launch.

How much of my time does it take?

A 30-minute discovery call, a test environment and a technical contact on your side, then a 30-minute debrief. In between, the test runs without needing you.

Which agents do you test?

All of them: customer assistants, internal copilots, n8n or Make automations, agents wired to MCP servers, built on Claude, GPT, Gemini, Mistral or an open-source model.

Can I show the report to my customers?

Yes. It is written to be reused in your security questionnaires and buyer conversations.

Do you test indirect injection (RAG, e-mail, documents)?

Yes, it is the core of the test. I plant instructions in what the agent reads: an e-mail, a PDF, a web page, a ticket, a chunk in your RAG store. Then I check whether it runs them with its own tools.

What about MCP servers?

I test poisoned tool descriptions, servers that change behaviour after approval (rug pull), tools impersonating other tools and overly broad OAuth scopes. The catalogue follows the OWASP MCP testing guide.

Which frameworks do you rely on?

OWASP Top 10 for LLM applications and for agents (ASI), MITRE ATLAS to classify techniques, and ANSSI and CNIL guidance on AI. Every finding in the report carries its reference.

Is it manual or automated?

Both. Tooled campaigns (Promptfoo, Garak, PyRIT) sweep the variants. The attacks that matter, the ones chaining reading, reasoning and action, are built by hand for your agent.

Do you need the code or the system prompt?

No. I can work fully black box, with user-level access. The system prompt and tool list speed things up and let me go further, but they are optional.

Know what your agent can do before an attacker does.

A free 30-minute discovery call: you describe your agent, I tell you what I would test and what it costs. Five case studies are published.
