Indirect Prompt Injection from External Data

Clean user requests can still trigger attacks when agents retrieve hostile instructions from web pages, documents, or database records.

Inline Security for LLM Agents, No Latency Cost

Production agent security can stay within the latency budget. We measured semantic injection checks and the cost of keeping p99 response time in bounds.

Why Model Providers Stop at Runtime Security

OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google focus on model safety, while runtime protection for deployed agents remains an application-layer responsibility.
