Mend.io launches industry's first AI system prompt security solution with automated threat detection

Mend.io has launched System Prompt Hardening, the first dedicated solution for securing AI system prompts, the hidden instructions that control AI application behaviour. The tool detects, scores and automatically refines weaknesses in these prompts before applications reach production. The solution uses Mend.io's proprietary AI Weakness Enumeration framework, which assigns a severity score from one to 100 to vulnerabilities that could expose applications to prompt injection or data leakage. According to Gartner, 32% of organisations experienced attacks on AI applications targeting prompts in the past year. System Prompt Hardening offers automated detection, formal severity scoring and proactive remediation suggestions. It is available in Mend AI Core and Premium tiers, extending the platform's capability to secure AI-generated code and embedded AI components throughout the development lifecycle.
