Blocking Slow-Burn Attacks: Contextual Policies in Omnigent
Summary
Omnigent now enables contextual policies that track risk across an entire session to block "slow-burn" indirect prompt injection attacks, stopping data theft at the outbound step without requiring any changes to the agent. These tamper-resistant policies cannot be overridden or disabled by the agent, ensuring that any policy denial wins and human approval is required for any changes.
