The hidden security risks of AI agents, with Ali Leylani | Proxify Talks

I agents are becoming more capable and more autonomous. But as they gain access to tools, memory, and company data, they also introduce new security risks.In this Proxify Talk, Ali Leylani, Co-founder & Chief AI Officer at Echo Alpha and Chairman of Stockholm AI, explains how AI agent systems work, where they’re vulnerable, and what engineering teams should think about before deploying them at scale. Drawing on his background in AI, cybersecurity, and defense technology, Ali explores the emerging attack surface created by autonomous and multi-agent systems.In this episode, you’ll learn:• How AI agents combine language models, memory, and external tools to perform complex tasks• Why multi-agent systems introduce new security challenges• How prompt injection, jailbreaks, and other attack techniques target AI systems• Why a single compromised agent or data source can affect an entire workflow• How malicious instructions can be hidden inside images and other multimodal inputs• What organizations should consider before giving AI agents greater autonomy.Whether you’re building AI products, leading an engineering team, or exploring agentic workflows, this talk offers a practical look at one of the biggest challenges facing AI adoption today.#AISecurity #ArtificialIntelligence #CyberSecurity #AIAgents #ProxifyTalks
