The AI Security Gap: Why your autonomous agents are completely unprotected

Autonomous AI agents lack foundational security: system prompts bypass via injection, tool registries poison, and closed APIs (GPT-4, Claude) hide behavior drift—leaving file systems and credentials exposed. Defense requires zero-trust stack—local model auditability, AST validation, sandbox isolation—reshaping vendor strategy away from closed APIs toward open-source and infrastructure-layer security.
