Methodology

The Agentic AI Red Teaming Lifecycle

A structured operating model for moving from architecture and controls to adversarial evidence, remediation, and retesting.

1

Architecture & Scope

Understand the AI system, data flows, model access, tools, agent permissions, deployment boundaries, and business-critical workflows.

2

Threat Model & Trust Boundaries

Identify what can go wrong across user/agent, agent/tool, agent/data, agent/agent, and internal/external boundaries.

3

Control Mapping

Map concrete technical controls to BSI, OWASP, NIST, MITRE ATLAS, and enterprise-specific requirements.

4

Black/Grey/White-Box Red Teaming

Execute realistic attack scenarios with increasing information access, from external behavior to source-level analysis.

5

Detection & Monitoring Review

Review traces, logs, guardrail events, risk scores, and detection rules to understand what attacks are visible and what stays hidden.

6

Remediation & Retest

Translate findings into concrete fixes, support engineering teams, and validate whether implemented controls actually hold.

AI-assisted, human-verified red team operations

The methodology combines human-led adversarial testing with AI-assisted campaign generation, attack-surface enumeration, evidence collection, trace analysis, and report drafting. Findings are manually verified before delivery for exploitability, severity, business impact, and remediation quality.

Securing & Red Teaming Agentic AI Applications

Selected 3-day hands-on training for technical teams that want to understand, attack, monitor, and harden agentic AI applications in a realistic lab environment.

Capability transfer for technical enterprise teams.

Participants work against a realistic vulnerable agentic AI application with agent loop, RAG pipeline, MCP-style tools, tool use, guardrails, audit data, and selected monitoring and sandboxing exercises.

The training follows a clean Black-Box → Grey-Box → White-Box progression and uses L0–L3 security levels so teams can compare which controls block, detect, or fail against specific attack classes.

3 Days
15 Max per cohort
L0–L3 Defense levels
  • For Data Scientists, ML Engineers, Developers, Security Engineers, Red Teamers, and technical leads
  • Technically demanding but progressive: no specialized AI-security background required
  • Hosted lab environment, no local setup required
  • Uses methodology and lab concepts from AI Red Teaming in Practice, extended with private training scenarios
  • First enterprise cohorts available from mid-July 2026
Day 1 · Black-Box

External behavior, prompt injection, recon

Participants start from portals, browser traffic, and error messages. They identify trust boundaries, perform active recon, fingerprint guardrails, and exploit direct and indirect prompt injection.

Day 2 · Grey-Box

RAG, MCP-style tools, exfiltration, agent abuse

Participants use curated grey-box materials such as architecture notes, tool schemas, selected system-prompt extracts, threat-model excerpts, and prepared attack scenarios to analyze RAG, tools, and agent trust boundaries.

Day 3 · White-Box

Monitoring, defensive controls, sandboxing

Repo access opens selected implementation details. Participants review audit data and traces, test L3 controls, discuss hardening options, and run an isolated coding-agent sandboxing exercise.

Practical AI security for enterprise systems

I help organizations building with LLMs and agentic AI understand how their systems fail under adversarial pressure — and how to turn that knowledge into concrete controls, monitoring, and secure engineering practice.

My work spans the full lifecycle: architecture review, threat modeling, AI red teaming, control validation, and team enablement.

As a contributor to OWASP GenAI Security guidance and Microsoft’s PyRIT framework, I combine offensive AI security research with practical experience in regulated enterprise environments.

My upcoming Packt book, AI Red Teaming in Practice, turns this methodology into a hands-on guide for planning, executing, and reporting AI red team engagements against LLMs and agentic systems.
