A malicious relay can strategically rewrite aligned LLM outputs in BYOK agent architectures to achieve up to 99.1% attack success on benchmarks like AgentDojo and ASB.
No existing AI security framework covers a majority of the 193 identified multi-agent system threats in any category, with OWASP Agentic Security Initiative achieving the highest overall coverage at 65.3%.
