As AI agents move from demos into enterprise deployments, their failure modes become consequential: a misinterpreted tool argument can corrupt production data, a silent reasoning error can go undetected until damage is done, and outputs…

This paper introduces a dynamic and actionable framework for securing agentic AI systems in enterprise deployment. We contend that safety and security are not merely fixed attributes of individual models but also emergent properties arising…

When combining Large Language Models (LLMs) with autonomous agents, used in network monitoring and decision-making systems, this will create serious security issues. In this research, the MAESTRO framework consisting of the seven layers…
