Explanation
Chat interface injection attacks-such as prompt injection-exploit uncontrolled user input to manipulate AI behavior or exfiltrate data. Input validation (sanitizing and constraining what users can submit) combined with structured prompt templates (limiting the shape and content of queries sent to the model) directly closes the attack surface at the point of entry. Audits and output reviews are detective controls that identify problems after the fact; continuous monitoring and tagging provide visibility but do not prevent the injection from reaching the model in the first place.
