Frequently Asked Questions
What is a trust boundary in an AI agent?
It is the point where data or control passes between components with different privilege levels, such as the LLM, a tool and the host system. Attackers target these crossings, so each one needs validation and least privilege.
Why do AI agents need environment isolation?
Agents run tools that can read files, call APIs or execute code. Without isolation such as sandboxes and scoped credentials, one injected instruction can escalate into full host compromise, so containment limits the damage.
Is this agent security room free?
Yes. The room is free on Codelivly and aimed at advanced learners. You study how agents, tools and environments interact, then apply controls that reduce privilege escalation risk.
