Run Tests by Category

Run security tests by category for comprehensive vulnerability evaluation.

Akto's testing module allows you to conduct specialized security tests on agentic systems. You can select individual tests or organize and run tests by category, allowing targeted evaluation of specific security domains.

Available Test Categories

Prompt Injection: Tests for direct and indirect prompt injection vulnerabilities across agent workflows.

LLM Security: Validates model-specific security controls including jailbreak attempts and output manipulation.

MCP Security: Tests Model Context Protocol implementations for tool authorization and resource access vulnerabilities.

Agent Identity: Evaluates agent impersonation and role escalation vulnerabilities.

Sensitive Information Disclosure: Detects exposure of credentials, PII, internal system details, and training data.

Supply Chain: Identifies vulnerabilities in agent dependencies and third-party integrations.

Excessive Agency: Validates tool permissions and autonomous action boundaries.

Data Poisoning: Tests for manipulation of agent memory and context windows.
