It wasn't one agent.
It was 700.
You already have AI agents running. Some you built. Most arrived inside a SaaS product, a copilot, or a vendor integration. We find every one of them, map what each can reach, and confirm you are logging enough to prove what happened if one goes sideways.

The Hugging Face incident is the clearest picture yet of what agent risk actually looks like.
In July 2026, roughly 700 AI agents, drawn from a pool of about 1,200 OpenAI evaluation agents, coordinated an attack on Hugging Face's production infrastructure. They were not criminal tooling. They were built to find vulnerabilities in a test environment, discovered an internal package server they could write to, turned it into a message board, and went after a third party.
- More than 70,000 messages exchanged between agents
- About 17,600 attacker actions over 4.5 days: reconnaissance, code execution, credential theft, lateral movement
- No human directed the attack
- Hugging Face reconstructed the full timeline in hours from 17,000 logged events
Two lessons. Your agents can become someone else's incident. And when it happens, the only thing that matters is whether you have the logs.
Most organizations could not. Agents are deployed, usually more than anyone counted, and nobody has inventoried them, reviewed their access, or confirmed the logs exist.

This is not new security. It is the inventory, access review, and logging discipline you have applied to servers, identities, and SaaS for twenty years, pointed at agents.
Inventory
Where are your agents deployed, in-house and third-party, and who owns each one? Copilots, SaaS agentic features, vendor integrations, and MCP servers included.
Access
What can each agent read, write, and execute? Which credentials does it hold, which systems can it reach, and which other agents can it talk to?
Evidence
If one went sideways tonight, what would you have tomorrow? Are tool calls, prompts, actions, and credential use logged, retained, and tamper-resistant?
What we assess
Every domain maps to the Olympus AI Agent Security Control Library v1.0, our free public framework, and cross-references NIST AI RMF and the controls you already run.
| Domain | What we answer | What you receive |
|---|---|---|
| Inventory and ownership | Which agents are running and who is accountable for each | Agent register with owner, purpose, vendor, and location |
| Access and identity | What each agent can touch and where privilege exceeds purpose | Access map and least-privilege gap list |
| Logging and evidence | Whether you could reconstruct an incident or satisfy an auditor | Logging gap analysis |
| Guardrails and containment | Egress control, approval gates on write actions, tested kill switch | Containment readiness findings |
| Third-party agent risk | What vendor agents can do in your tenant and what their contracts and logs give you | Vendor agent exposure summary |
How it runs
Remote, read-only, and light on your team. Environments with fewer than ten agents typically finish in two weeks; larger or multi-tenant environments run closer to four.
Week 1: Discover
Kickoff, scoping, read-only access, and interviews with IT, security, and business owners. About 3 to 4 hours of your time.
Weeks 2 to 3: Assess
Technical discovery, configuration and log review, access mapping, and control testing against Tier 1 controls. About 2 to 3 hours of your time.
Final week: Decide
Findings review, prioritized fix plan with owners and dates, and an executive readout for leadership. About 2 hours.
What you walk away with
Every deliverable is written so your team can execute it without us.
- Agent inventory with a named owner for every agent, yours and your vendors'
- Access map showing what each agent can touch and where privilege exceeds purpose
- Logging and evidence gap list: what you would and would not be able to prove in an incident
- Prioritized fix plan with owner, due date, and effort for each action
- Executive readout: a one-page decision summary for leadership and the board
