Cisco open-sources agentic AI security spec

Cisco has turned over an internally developed specification for agentic AI security evaluation to the GitHub open-source community. The Foundry Security Spec is meant to be used with GitHub’s spec-kit, which is an industry-wide set of development workflows that can be used with different AI agents. The idea is to help customers and the industry create a common framework for evaluating and governing AI agents used in cybersecurity, according to Anthony Grieco , senior vice president and chief security officer at Cisco. “I’ve said this for many years: Cybersecurity is a team sport,” Grieco said in a prerecorded video about the news. “We’ve all got to come together and work together for a better collective defense.
