Cybersecurity Risks of Hidden Commands in AI-Generated Images
Promptware, a new form of malware targeting AI and smart home devices through prompt injections, poses significant security risks by tricking AI systems into executing malicious commands. To protect against this, users should keep devices updated, avoid opening unknown messages, limit AI access to untrusted messages, disable AI features in messaging apps, and scrutinize data before copying or pasting. These practices help safeguard privacy and prevent AI manipulation in the home.
