AI control plane: Must-Have Shield Against Risky Agents
As AI agents take on more autonomy, Astrix’s new AI control plane promises centralized visibility, policy enforcement and fast remediation—so security teams can rein in rogue agent actions and reduce risk without sacrificing productivity.
PromptFix attacks: Must-Have Defenses vs Risky Threats
Researchers warn of a new PromptFix attack that hijacks the prompts and data feeding agentic AIs, letting attackers steer, confuse, or corrupt assistants without touching the underlying models.
