Instruction Detection
An AI agent security defense technique that identifies suspected imperative statements, privilege-escalation requests or anomalous exfiltration targets before retrieved content enters the model context. It typically combines rule matching with classification models and retains a human review channel.
Timeline (last 90 days)
Instruction detection means identifying suspected imperative statements, privilege-escalation requests or anomalous exfiltration targets before retrieved content enters the context, using a combination of rule matching and classification models, with a human review channel retained.
Content source trust grading and instruction detection can only reduce risk, not eliminate it, and must be combined with least privilege and behavior monitoring to form defense in depth.
Production defenses need to cover the post-retrieval stage, including instruction detection, permission restrictions and behavior monitoring.
