AI Agent Security Guides from ClawSecure

ClawSecure publishes step-by-step AI agent security guides that show you how to secure AI agents in practice, from auditing a skill or MCP server before you install it to preventing prompt injection once it is running, with ClawSecure's AI CISO doing that security work for you.

These are the how-to pages rather than the research. Each one is written for someone who has to make a decision now: is this tool safe, what permissions should it get, and what to do about something that is already installed.

Begin with ClawSecure's guide to securing an MCP server and how to tell if an AI tool is safe, which walks through the five checks that matter. Developers shipping LLM-powered software should read how to secure AI agents and LLM apps. If something has already gone wrong, the incident response guide for a malicious skill covers isolation, removal, and credential rotation in order.

These guides are grounded in measurement rather than best-practice boilerplate: ClawSecure's audit of thousands of agent components found that 41% carry at least one security vulnerability, which is why every guide here treats a component as unverified until it has been audited.

ClawSecure's AI CISO automates the same steps these guides teach, blocking prompt injection, credential theft, and data exfiltration while an agent is running, with 10/10 coverage of the OWASP ASI Top 10.
