AI-generated code can contain vulnerabilities, insecure dependencies, logic errors, or exposed secrets. It should undergo normal code review and security testing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is prompt injection?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Prompt injection is an attack technique that attempts to manipulate an AI system through crafted input so that it behaves contrary to its intended instructions or security boundaries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Does SOC 2 cover AI security?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">SOC 2 is not an AI-specific security standard. However, SOC 2 controls related to security, access management, risk management, change management, vendor management, confidentiality, privacy, and monitoring can be relevant to AI environments depending on the organization&#8217;s scope and risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Should businesses ban employees from using AI?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A complete ban is not necessarily the only approach. Organizations can establish approved AI tools, acceptable-use rules, data restrictions, access controls, employee training, and monitoring appropriate to their risk environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How often should AI security risks be assessed?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AI risk assessments should be performed periodically and when significant changes occur, such as introducing a new AI system, changing a model, connecting AI to sensitive data, or adding a new third-party AI provider.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Artificial intelligence is changing how businesses work.
