As AI agents move from demos into enterprise deployments, their failure modes become consequential: a misinterpreted tool argument can corrupt production data, a silent reasoning error can go undetected until damage is done, and outputs…

The acquisition of agentic capabilities has transformed LLMs from "knowledge providers" to "action executors", a trend that while expanding LLMs' capability boundaries, significantly increases their susceptibility to malicious use. Previous…
