AI Tool-Use Security Testing

Testing the security of AI function calling and tool use, where language meets real actions.

What is AI Tool-Use Security?

AI tool-use security testing assesses how safely your AI calls tools and functions: what it can invoke, with what permissions, and whether an attacker can manipulate it into calling tools in harmful ways.

Why it matters

Tool use is where an LLM stops talking and starts doing. Insecure or over-broad tool access lets an attacker turn a manipulated model into unauthorised actions against your systems.

How Solusec tests it

We test each tool the AI can call, its parameters, permissions and validation, and attempt to abuse them through the model, then recommend least-privilege scoping and guardrails.

AI testing, led by a human

Solusec is one of the first firms worldwide accredited under CREST's AI-Enabled Penetration Testing standard, so our use of AI is independently assured: responsible, transparent and always human-led. You get faster, broader testing, your data stays out of public AI tools, and every finding is validated by a qualified tester. Read about the accreditation.

What you get

You get a clear, prioritised report mapped to business risk, a walkthrough of every finding with practical fixes your developers can action, and a free retest once you have remediated. No scanner dump, no jargon, no sales team: you deal directly with the tester.

Common questions

What is tool use?

When an AI calls functions or external tools to act, fetch data, or change systems, rather than just generating text.

How do you reduce the risk?

Least-privilege tool scoping, strict validation and human-in-the-loop for sensitive actions, all of which we test and advise on.

How quickly can testing start?

After a short, free scoping call we give a fixed price and a start date, often within days.

Is your AI use safe and independently assured?

Yes. Solusec holds CREST's AI-Enabled Penetration Testing accreditation, which independently assures that our AI use is responsible, secure and human-led.
