Why it matters

Prompt-injection testing helps defenders identify where untrusted content can trigger unauthorized tool calls, expose customer data, or alter model outputs.

Frugal Testing’s guide explains direct and indirect prompt injection through user messages and external content such as documents, emails, and web pages. The guide recommends mapping attack surfaces, running adversarial tests, validating results, and layering least privilege, output validation, and human approval.
