Software & AI Architects

As generative AI applications gain direct access to enterprise databases and internal APIs, securing them against adversarial attacks has become paramount.

1. Understanding Direct and Indirect Prompt Injection

01

Direct injection manipulates system prompts via user input, while indirect injection embeds malicious payloads inside untrusted external documents or emails ingested by RAG pipelines.

2. Multi Layered Guardrails & Validation Layers

02

Implement input classification models (e.g., Llama Guard or NeMo Guardrails) to inspect and sanitize incoming prompts before they reach the reasoning model.

3. Preventing Data Leakage with PII Redaction

03

Deploy automated PII tokenization and masking filters in both prompt ingress and model egress streams to ensure confidential company data never leaves your perimeter.

4. Principle of Least Privilege for AI Agent Tool Calling

04

Constrain AI agent permissions with scoped OAuth tokens, strict JSON Schema validation, and mandatory human in the loop approvals for sensitive write operations.
