Why it matters

RAG deployments require retrieval-layer trust and permission controls to limit indirect prompt injection and exposure of organizational data.

AI Buzz's secure RAG guide explains vector and embedding attack surfaces, emphasizing indirect prompt injection through retrieved documents. The guide outlines source-trust metadata, permission enforcement, and a pre-deployment checklist aligned with OWASP LLM08, rather than presenting a newly demonstrated exploit.
