Google Research maps open problems in agentic privacy and security
Google Research · rss · 2026-10-06
Google Research published "Open and Emergent Problems in Agentic Privacy and Security: A Contextual Angle," outlining how agentic AI systems create new classes of privacy and security risks.
The piece argues that once models can browse, call tools, and act autonomously, static data-protection thinking falls short: the danger shifts from leaking data in responses to context-dependent misbehavior—unauthorized access or sharing, and prompt-injection exploitation during task execution. The authors frame these open and emergent problems as a priority for the research community, using a contextual lens to reason about agent safety.
