In our latest Newsletter, we explore the growing threat of malicious prompts, which are hidden commands exploiting our trust.
Malicious prompts prey on our need for quick fixes.
Imagine copying a "helpful" Stack Overflow command late at night, or an AI prompt from X that claims to be the "silver bullet" of all prompts.
Next thing you know, your system is compromised.
These attacks are real and happen daily with SMBs in the attackers' crosshairs.
Here’s what you need to know to stay ahead of these threats:
1. AI Vulnerabilities: Prompt injections, ranked the #1 AI security threat by OWASP, affect 31 of 36 tested apps, risking data leaks or manipulated outputs.
2. Code Repositories: Research shows 15.4% of 1.3 million Android apps inherit flaws from copied snippets, spreading to thousands of GitHub projects.
3. Social Media Scams: From Discord token thefts to clipboard hijacks, attackers use trusted platforms to trick users into running malicious scripts.
