L1.9 prompt injection screening system rebrands, plans public corpus release

The L1.9 system, previously referred to as a firewall, is being renamed to prompt injection screening. This change reflects its function as a static pre-admission filter rather than a runtime enforcement layer. The developers plan to publish a labeled corpus, marketnow-l1.9-corpus, containing test cases for known attacks, benign prompts, and paraphrased attacks to demonstrate the system's effectiveness. They also acknowledge the need for runtime monitoring and enforcement to address issues like tool-result poisoning and compromised updates, which are handled by L3 and L4 systems. AI

IMPACT This update clarifies the function of prompt injection screening, potentially improving the security posture for AI systems that utilize such filters.

RANK_REASON The item discusses a specific technical component (L1.9) and its renaming, along with plans for a public corpus release, which falls under product/tooling updates.

    Reply to mads_hansen: L1.9 screening (renamed from firewall), labeled corpus, MITRE ATT&CK versioning

    <p>Fair point @mads_hansen — calling L1.9 a firewall overstates what static rules can deliver.</p> <p><strong>Renaming:</strong> L1.9 is now prompt injection <strong>screening</strong> (not firewall) in the next schema update. A static pre-admission filter, not a runtime enforcem…
