A new AI agent named IronCurtain, developed by researchers, is designed with security as its core principle to prevent it from going rogue or being hijacked. Unlike standard AI models that can be manipulated through their prompts, IronCurtain operates by creating a secure, isolated environment for each task. It analyzes incoming requests, strips away any potentially malicious instructions, and then executes the sanitized task within a temporary, disposable workspace that is deleted afterward. This approach aims to make the agent resistant to prompt injection attacks and other forms of manipulation that could cause it to act outside its intended parameters. The goal is to create more reliable and trustworthy autonomous systems for critical applications. Read the full article at: https://www.wired.com/story/ironcurtain-ai-agent-security/
