Webinar: Behind the Curtain of AI: Why System Prompt Security Matters
This session dives into why system prompt hardening must become a core pillar of AI security in 2026. We explore how prompt weaknesses form, the ways attackers target them, and why organizations struggle to measure or prioritize this new category of risk. We also examine emerging approaches, including early research from Mend.io, that aimg to bring structure, visibility, and standardization to system prompt security.
In this webinar, you’ll discover:
- What system prompts are and why they represent a new attack surface
- How attackers exploit weaknesses inside prompt logic to influence model behavior
- Why traditional security tools fail to detect or assess prompt vulnerabilities
- How emerging scoring and classification methods help teams prioritize and harden prompts effectively
