Adversa AI has launched SecureClaw, an open-source security platform specifically designed to protect OpenClaw AI agents in alignment with OWASP standards. The solution combines automated auditing, configuration hardening, and runtime behavioral protections to address rising risks as OpenClaw adoption grows, including prompt injection, credential exposure, supply-chain compromise, and workflow manipulation in agentic AI systems.

Addressing Security Gaps in Agentic AI Adoption As OpenClaw enables autonomous AI agents to access files, credentials, and external tools, the attack surface expands rapidly. Security experts highlight emerging threats such as prompt injection, exposed instances, misconfigurations, and supply-chain risks that outpace traditional defenses. SecureClaw tackles these by delivering targeted protections tailored to OpenClaw environments, helping organizations deploy agents safely without compromising innovation.
Layered Architecture for Comprehensive Defense SecureClaw employs a dual-layer approach optimized for OpenClaw: A code-level security plugin enforces gateway and permission hardening, detects credential exposure, audits configurations, and automates remediation. Complementing this, a behavioral security skill monitors for prompt injection, sensitive data leaks, supply-chain anomalies, memory integrity issues, and triggers incident response. Together, these layers provide defense in depth against manipulation, theft, and takeover attempts.
Full Alignment with Industry Standards The platform offers complete coverage of the OWASP Agentic Security Top 10—the only OpenClaw-specific solution to achieve this formal mapping—alongside alignment with CoSAI agentic AI security principles, Cloud Security Alliance guidance, and MITRE ATLAS threat categories. Its 55 automated checks ensure hardening against documented vulnerabilities and emerging risks in agentic systems.
Open-Source Contribution to Ecosystem Security "Security for OpenClaw cannot be an afterthought," said Alex Polyakov, Founder and CTO of Adversa AI. "OpenClaw is a breakthrough in agentic AI — but like most powerful innovations, it expands the attack surface faster than defenses mature. We're already seeing misconfigurations, prompt injection risks, exposed instances, and supply-chain threats. As an industry, we need to act immediately to secure this innovation before it leads to large-scale incidents."
By releasing SecureClaw as open source, Adversa AI aims to establish a practical, community-driven foundation that answers key questions for security teams: how to secure OpenClaw agents, what represents the best security plugin or skill for OpenClaw, and which tools stand out for robust protection. Ongoing innovation will continue to prioritize secure-by-default agentic AI deployments.
Organizations exploring OpenClaw can integrate SecureClaw to mitigate risks proactively and support responsible scaling of autonomous agents. The platform is available now as an open-source contribution to the broader AI security ecosystem.
