Prompt injection is structurally unsolved, and agents turned it from an embarrassment into a breach. Learn the OWASP agentic risk categories, why detection fails, and the containment architecture that works: least-privilege tools, approval gates, sandboxes, provenance, and a red-team practice you run against your own harness.
Agent Evals and AI Security
How do you know an agent works, and how do you keep it from being turned against you? Trajectory grading, task suites built from failures, validated judges, CI regression gates, and the containment architecture for prompt injection: least privilege, approval gates, sandboxes, and a red-team practice you run yourself.
