An AI agent that can browse, run code or move data becomes an insider the moment it ingests attacker-controlled input. As Cyprus fintech and SaaS firms adopt autonomous AI, we test these systems end to end — the model, its tools, its memory and the boundaries between them.
We attempt tool-use abuse, goal hijacking and sandbox escape to show exactly what a compromised agent could do in your environment.
We approach ai agent penetration testing from the attacker's side of the keyboard, prioritising exploitable risk over long lists of theoretical issues. We map your real environment, not a generic template, then test every path where trust is granted and every place where controls could be bypassed.
The result is clarity: a prioritised, exploitable-risk view of your ai agent attack surface that your team can act on immediately, backed by proof rather than a scanner's guesswork.
AI Agent Penetration Testing: manual, exploit-led coverage for Limassol & island-wide Cyprus businesses.
Why it matters
For Cyprus AI product teams, fintech and forex firms deploying LLM features, the cost of a breach is rarely just technical. A weakness that reaches customer or financial data can trigger a GDPR, the EU AI Act and NIS2 obligation, damage hard-won client trust, and stall deals while security questionnaires go unanswered. Our ai agent penetration testing exists to remove that uncertainty before an attacker — or an auditor — finds the gap first.
By proving exactly what is exploitable and what it would cost, we turn a vague worry into a concrete, fundable remediation plan. Cyprus firms use our reports to close real gaps, satisfy CySEC, GDPR and NIS2 expectations, and demonstrate genuine due diligence to clients, partners and insurers — with a free retest to prove the fixes hold.
What we test

Goal hijacking & instruction override
Privilege escalation through agent tools
Sandbox & code-execution escape
Cross-agent & memory poisoning
Data exfiltration via agent actions
Common vulnerabilities we uncover
Tool-use abuse leading to unauthorized actions
Goal hijacking via injected instructions
Excessive agency and over-broad tool permissions
Sandbox and code-interpreter escape
Cross-agent memory and context poisoning
Sensitive data exfiltration through agent tools
How we run your engagement
Kick-off & scoping. A short call to agree goals, in-scope assets and rules of engagement, so your ai agent penetration testing is safe, authorised and aimed at your real business risk.
Mapping & discovery. Before touching anything we map the full attack surface in scope, so nothing exploitable slips through.
Hands-on testing. Cyprus-based specialists exploit and chain weaknesses manually — the flaws scanners walk straight past — to show genuine impact.
Reporting. Each issue is verified, CVSS-rated and documented with a step-by-step reproduction and a practical fix your team can apply.
Free retest. Once you have remediated, we re-test at no extra cost to confirm the attack path is truly closed.
Tools & techniques
For AI Agent Penetration Testing, that means going deep on tool-use & function-calling abuse, goal hijacking & instruction override and privilege escalation through agent tools — proven by exploitation, not asserted by a scanner.
We test AI systems against the OWASP LLM Top 10 and current agentic-attack research. Adversarial prompt-generation tooling widens coverage, but the decisive work is manual: crafting injection and jailbreak payloads, chaining an LLM's tool and data access into real actions, and probing the boundary between trusted instructions and untrusted content. We treat the model, its prompts, its retrieval sources and its tools as one attack surface.
Every confirmed issue is reproduced with the exact prompt or input sequence, and rated by the concrete action an attacker could force — data exfiltration, unauthorised tool use or privilege escalation — not by abstract model behaviour.
When you need this engagement
You are deploying, changing or relying on systems where tool-use & function-calling abuse would be business-critical
Your AI can browse, run code, or call internal APIs and tools
You use retrieval-augmented generation over sensitive or proprietary documents
You need to satisfy GDPR or EU AI Act expectations for a deployed AI system
You want assurance before exposing an AI assistant to untrusted user input
What you receive
Agent threat model & attack map
Exploitation PoCs with impact
Guardrail & tool-scope recommendations
Free retest after remediation

What you gain
By the end of your ai agent penetration testing, you will know exactly which weaknesses a real attacker could exploit, what it would cost your business, and the precise order in which to fix them — backed by evidence, not a scanner’s guesswork. Cyprus firms use our findings to close critical gaps, satisfy client and regulator security questionnaires, and demonstrate due diligence for GDPR and NIS2. With a free retest included, you also get documented proof the issues are resolved.
Working with us
Every ai agent penetration testing begins with a short, no-obligation scoping call to understand your goals, environment and constraints, followed by a fixed-price proposal. Most work is delivered remotely, and because we are based in Cyprus we work in your timezone with on-site visits across Limassol, Nicosia and island-wide where it helps. We keep you updated throughout and flag any critical finding immediately rather than waiting for the report. Everything is covered by a signed NDA and safe, non-disruptive testing that protects your production systems. You receive your report, a walkthrough and a complimentary retest once fixes land. Engagements are typically booked one to three weeks ahead, and urgent testing can often be arranged — just email hi@cypruspentest.com.
