Where Does AI Agent Security Actually Live?

AI companies spend enormous effort making models safer, but the model tested in the lab isn't necessarily the system a company eventually deploys.

Alice CEO and co-founder Noam Schwartz joins Corey and Grant to explain why prompts, tools, memory, permissions, data, and agent-to-agent interactions create an entirely new security surface.

They dig into the growing “trust gap” around enterprise AI, why prompt injection may become a permanent cat-and-mouse game, what open-weight models change for defenders, and why Schwartz believes the real security boundary has to exist at every layer of an AI system.

The bigger takeaway: as AI moves from answering questions to taking actions, traditional cybersecurity may need to merge with fraud prevention, threat intelligence, and trust and safety.
