Treating them as the same thing leaves gaps, and doing only one means finding problems in production instead of before launch. This blog explains what each practice is, how t

AI agents can be manipulated — not through traditional hacking, but through prompt injection and related techniques that exploit how language models process instructions and content. This article breaks down the real vulnerabilities enterprises face, illustrative risk scenarios, and the defense-in-depth practices that meaningfully reduce exposure without eliminating it.
