OWASP Introduces Agentic AI Security Maturity Framework

OWASP has released a new framework focused on security maturity for agentic AI systems. The Agentic AI Security Maturity Framework aims to help organizations address the gap between currently deployed agentic systems and the governance structures required to manage them securely.

The framework provides a structured approach for assessing and improving security practices specific to agentic AI—systems that can act autonomously on behalf of users.

The release comes as organizations increasingly deploy agentic AI systems across various sectors, often without commensurate security governance. The framework is intended to serve as a reference point for security teams, helping them identify maturity levels and prioritize improvements. Further details on the framework's components and implementation guidance are expected to follow.
