Google Cloud Model Armor targets prompt injection and data leaks in multi-agent systems

- The post explains why multi-agent systems need more than basic guardrails: indirect prompt injection can hide inside seemingly normal documents and trick agents into taking harmful actions.
- It argues that ordinary model refusals are not enough because they do not function as dedicated security tools and can still be bypassed or leak private data.
- The recommended defense is Google Cloud Model Armor, described as an independent security layer that scans prompts and data for malicious links, injections, and sensitive information before and after model calls.
- The post also highlights a context layer such as Port as a single source of truth to reduce hallucinations and keep agents focused on relevant information.
