From Stateless Queries to Autonomous Actions: A Layered Security Framework for Agentic AI Systems

Agentic AI systems face security challenges that stateless large language models do not. They plan across extended horizons, maintain persistent memory, invoke external tools, and coordinate with peer agents. Existing security analyses organize threats by attack type prompt injection, jailbreakin...

HAMLOCK: HArdware-Model LOgically Combined AttacK

The growing use of third-party hardware accelerators e.g., FPGAs, ASICs for deep neural networks DNNs introduces new security vulnerabilities. Conventional model-level backdoor attacks, which only poison a model's weights to misclassify inputs with a specific trigger, are often detectable because...
