AI is getting smarter, and so are the attacks targeting it. Prompt injection — where malicious inputs hijack AI models — is now one of the fastest-growing security threats in 2026.
Here's what changed:
- Jailbreaks are automated
- Multimodal attacks are real
- Indirect injection is the new threat
- Agentic AI amplifies the blast radius
The good news: defenses exist. Input validation, output filtering, prompt hardening, and sandboxing all reduce risk.
