Google Workspace’s continuous approach to mitigating indirect prompt injections

Actualités
Posted by Adam Gavish, Google GenAI Security Team Indirect prompt injection (IPI) is an evolving threat vector targeting users of complex AI applications with multiple data sources, such as Workspace with Gemini.

This may even be possible without any input directly from the user. IPI is not the kind of technical problem you “solve” and move on. Sophisticated LLMs with increasing use of agentic automation combined with a wide range of content create an ultra-dynamic and evolving playground for adversarial attacks.
