Meta just launched LlamaFirewall – an open-source security system for AI agents.

The goal is to protect agents from three big threats:

1️. Jailbreaking – malicious prompts that bypass safeguards

2️. Goal Hijacking – tricking an agent into following the wrong objective

3️. Code Exploits – sneaking in vulnerabilities through generated code

The code and models are freely available for projects that have up to 700 million monthly active users - https://lnkd.in/g--MPRNw

Most AI security today focuses on blocking bad inputs or tweaking outputs.

But AI agents face extra dangers:

  • They can be tricked by jailbreak prompts

  • Misled by malicious data while using tools

  • Or even introduce new security holes through unsafe code

That’s why we now need deeper protection layers:

  • Block harmful prompts

  • Monitor if actions drift from the original goal

  • Review generated code for weaknesses

The effectiveness of LlamaFirewall will become clearer in the coming months, but it seems a right step in securing AI agents.

Question: Do you know of other tools or solutions that help secure AI agents?
