Summary
AI agents (autonomous systems that can write code, access data, and complete tasks with minimal human oversight) are increasingly deployed in companies, but traditional security approaches that focus on blocking malicious prompts miss the real danger. Check Point proposes a new contextual AI protection system that monitors an agent's full behavior across multiple steps to prevent harmful actions before they execute, rather than just filtering individual malicious inputs.
