Salt Security adds native AI detection and response to agentic security platform
Brief
Salt Security has expanded its Agentic Security Platform with native AI Detection and Response (AI-DR) capabilities designed to connect attacks targeting large language models with subsequent activity across MCP servers, tools and APIs.
The new capabilities provide real-time protection against direct and indirect prompt injection, jailbreak attempts, unsafe model behaviour and other threats that emerge while AI systems are running.
Prompt injection remains the highest-ranked risk in the OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications 2026. However, Salt Security argues that the risk extends beyond manipulating the model itself. As AI agents gain access to business tools and systems, a malicious prompt can potentially lead to unauthorised actions or expose sensitive information through the infrastructure connected to an agent.
