Tool access and scope
Review which tools the agent can call and whether their permissions match the actions it is meant to perform.
GALEN SECURITY / AI AGENT SECURITY AUDIT
Review the tools, APIs, permissions, and data behind your agent. Galen’s web application analysis examines the supported code paths behind those connections, giving your team evidence of which actions are reachable and which controls enforce the intended boundaries.
Available now: Galen Policy Beta and Managed Galen Security Audits. Self-service Galen Security is coming soon.
WHAT THE AUDIT COVERS
An agent’s risk depends on the authority behind its tool calls. Review what each connection allows, whose identity it uses, and which controls limit the result.
Review which tools the agent can call and whether their permissions match the actions it is meant to perform.
Examine the endpoints, authentication, and permission boundaries behind MCP servers and callable functions.
Trace access to customer records, files, repositories, and connected systems for unintended exposure.
Assess the data or actions that could become reachable if untrusted input changes the agent’s behavior.
Review whether exports, account changes, administrative operations, and other high-impact actions require the intended authority.
Use the retained tool path, permission evidence, and approved access rules to guide corrections and later checks. Changes to the agent or coding assistant do not replace that security reference.
A FINDING IN CONTEXT
A support agent can call an export tool. The tool uses a shared credential and does not enforce the requesting customer’s tenant.
Illustrative scenario, not a live scan or actual customer finding.
FOLLOW THE PATH
The tool grants access beyond the customer boundary the agent is expected to respect.
Enforce the caller’s tenant and permissions in the underlying tool or API, then recheck the agent-to-data path.
FROM FINDING TO CORRECTION
Review the evidence, make a focused correction, and check the result against the original risk.
See how Galen Security worksA FEW PRACTICAL QUESTIONS
No. The review focuses on the tools, data, actions, and permission boundaries an agent can reach. Source-backed analysis examines supported implementation paths; prompt-injection behavior and deployed permissions may need additional scoped testing or context. An instruction asking a model to respect a boundary is not proof that the underlying tool enforces it.
Yes. MCP servers and function-calling endpoints can be included in the agreed review scope, along with the underlying APIs and permissions.
Yes. A Managed Security Audit can define the agent workflows, connected systems, access requirements, remediation review, and reporting for a Telhawk-led engagement.
