Sub-risks (2)
Technique-level decompositions of this risk, each anchored to the MITRE ATLAS technique it derives from.
Models, data, or other AI artifacts are exfiltrated using conventional intrusion techniques.
Attackers extract the system prompt and hidden instructions, exposing proprietary logic and guardrails.
