Architecting secure Generative AI applications: Safeguarding against indirect prompt injection
by Guest Roee Oz- 0 replies
- 1 view
As developers, we must be vigilant about how attackers could misuse our applications.

In a previous blog post - Best practices to architect secure generative AI applications, I covered how a Gen AI application should use user identities for accessing sensitive data and performing sensitive operations. This practice reduces the risk of jailbreak and prompt injections, as malicious users cannot gain access to resources they don’t already have. However, what if an attacker manages to run a prompt under the identity of…
