System prompt injection — CodeQL query help documentation
If user-controlled data is included in a system prompt or the description of tools for an agentic system, an attacker can manipulate the instructions that govern the AI model’s behavior, bypassing intended restrictions and potentially causing sensitive data leaks or unintended operations.
The gate moves outside the model - Sensemaker
The useful control point is no longer only model behavior. It is where AI output turns into action.
Agents Rule of Two: A Practical Approach to AI Agent Security
We've developed the Agents Rule of Two. When this framework is followed, the severity of security risks is deterministically reduced.
Microsoft offers devs a better way to control AI agent behavior | TechCrunch
The specification lets developer, compliance, and security teams define their own policies for agents to follow in portable policy files.
