1. What is the main idea of "Agent-Specific Prompt Injection Defenses: Why Standard LLM Defenses Aren't Enough"?

   1. Prompt injection in agents is more dangerous than in chatbots — because agents take actions.
   2. Use AI as the final authority for the whole decision
   3. Avoid checking the answer once it sounds polished
   4. Focus only on speed instead of judgment

   1. prompt injection
   2. tool output sanitization
   3. indirect injection
   4. agent safety

3. Which use of AI fits this topic best?

   1. Eliminate prompt injection risk (only reduce it through layered controls)
   2. Let the AI decide what matters without your review
   3. Apply input filtering not just to user input but to every tool output and fetched content
   4. Use the answer before checking whether it fits the situation

4. Which limitation should you watch for in this topic?

   1. Apply input filtering not just to user input but to every tool output and fetched content
   2. Explain the topic in plain language
   3. Organize a draft for human review
   4. Eliminate prompt injection risk (only reduce it through layered controls)

5. What should a careful learner remember about "Agent injection defense audit"?

   1. Use "Agent injection defense audit" as a reminder to verify the AI output before anyone relies on it.
   2. Skip the context so the tool can guess faster
   3. Treat the output as private even after sharing it online
   4. Use the answer without checking the source

   2. Use AI for drafting and comparison, but verify before publishing or relying on it.
   3. Hide uncertainty so the final answer looks cleaner
   4. Use private or sensitive details before checking permission

7. How should AI output about tool output sanitization be treated?

   1. As proof that no other source is needed
   2. As a replacement for context, consent, or expert review
   3. As a draft or helper output that still needs human judgment and verification
   4. As something that becomes correct when it sounds confident

8. Name one way to verify an AI answer about tool output sanitization.

9. Which action would help you apply "Agent-Specific Prompt Injection Defenses: Why Standard LLM Defenses Aren't Enough" responsibly?

   1. Trust any input source (including 'trusted' data sources)
   2. Use the tool to avoid thinking through the tradeoff
   3. Keep going even if the output conflicts with a trusted source
   4. Implement structured tool I/O with schema validation rather than free-text parsing

10. Which choice is a bad use of AI for this lesson?

    1. Trust any input source (including 'trusted' data sources)
    2. Apply input filtering not just to user input but to every tool output and fetched content
    3. Ask for a plain-language explanation of prompt injection
    4. Compare the answer with a trusted source
