A Reddit user unveiled AgentPaySec, a security testing platform for AI agents with financial authority, seeking real-world feedback.
- Test dimensions cover authorization, prompt injection, payment integrity, transaction manipulation, tool misuse, and business logic
- Against a simulated payment-capable shopping agent, 16 security tests were run: 11 resisted, 5 exploited, including several critical findings
- An interactive demo and security console show assessment results with detailed traces
The author is soliciting input from agent builders and AI security practitioners on which attack surfaces and failure modes to test next.
