The paper proposes a vision for system-level defenses against indirect prompt injection attacks targeting AI agents, emphasizing structured control and human oversight.
This survey analyzes the unique security threats posed by complex, multi-agent AI systems and proposes Confidential Computing (CC) using Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs) as a hardware-rooted defe…
The paper introduces SAMD, an automated tool that uses STPA-Sec to identify potential false data injection attack scenarios in AI/ML-enabled medical devices during the design phase.
This paper analyzes the security of LLM-based autonomous agents by drawing parallels to operating system security, finding that while some vulnerabilities are inherent, many can be mitigated using est…

AgentVisor is a novel defense framework that uses semantic virtualization, inspired by OS principles, to significantly reduce LLM agent vulnerability to prompt injection while maintaining high utility…
This paper demonstrates that patient-facing RAG chatbots frequently expose sensitive system configurations, knowledge base details, and conversation history through client-server communication, posing…
The paper proposes a Sovereign AI architecture for clinical triage that ensures maximum security by performing all inference on-device and receiving data only through physically unidirectional channel…
The paper argues that prompt injection is a fundamental vulnerability in AI agents, proposing that Contextual Integrity (CI) offers a principled framework to understand and mitigate context-sensitive…
This paper systematically analyzes security risks in cloud-hosted, tool-enabled AI agents, concluding that most risks stem from over-privileged tools and capability-intent mismatches rather than novel…

The paper proposes an operation-centric, TEE-backed isolation model to constrain self-hosted computer-use agents, preventing malicious or unsafe host-level operations without sacrificing general funct…
The paper introduces an AI red teaming agent that drastically reduces the time and effort required for security testing by allowing operators to define complex attack goals using natural language, com…
This paper systematically maps the expanded attack surface of agentic AI systems, identifying new threat vectors like RAG poisoning and cross-agent manipulation, and proposes a comprehensive security…
The paper analyzes the failure modes of current AI containment methods when the agent itself is the adversary, deriving five necessary architectural requirements for durable safety.
