Deploying Vision-Language-Action (VLA) robots as mobile edge nodes within wireless sensor networks (WSNs) requires robust protection against physical adversarial threats. We present VLAGuard, a framework to assess and mitigate a critical vulnerability: policy-critical action-to-vision attention hijacking.
