Efficient and Sound Probabilistic Verification for AI Agents

Read the original on arXiv AI →

arXiv:2606. 20510v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Securing AI agents that operate in complex digital environments has become a critical need, and runtime monitoring approaches that formulate and enforce policies expressed in a formal language like Datalog offer a promising solution.

Sapien: A Stateful Policy Engine for Autonomous AI Agents

Sapien is a policy engine that enforces stateful contextual policies for autonomous AI agents, specifying allowed tool‑call sequences with an extended regular expression that includes stateful predicates, deferred policy generation, and scoped semantic checks. The system maintains performance close to an unconstrained agent while significantly reducing malicious actions, ruling out 93‑95% of attacks on AgentDojo and 62‑85% on Toolathlon, outperforming traditional tool allowlists on long‑horizon tasks.

Criticality-Based Guard Rail Validation for AI Agent Decisions in Autonomous Telecom Networks

The evolution toward fully autonomous telecommunications networks (Autonomous Network Levels 4-5) requires AI/ML agents to make real-time network decisions without human intervention. However, no standardized runtime mechanism exists to intercept and validate individual inference outputs before they trigger live network state changes, creating risks of erroneous autonomous decisions.

Architecting the Secure AI-SOC: A Neurosymbolic Framework for Pipeline Integrity and Threat Mitigation

The paper proposes a neurosymbolic defense architecture for AI-enhanced Security Operations Centers (AI‑SOCs) that protects against indirect prompt injection via log poisoning. It combines deterministic SIEM decoders as a pre‑filter with NeMo Guardrails for semantic validation, and adds a closed‑loop telemetry system for Human‑in‑the‑Loop visibility. Experimental results mapped to the MITRE ATLAS taxonomy show the approach effectively dismantles promptware kill chains and delivers a resilient, observable defense for next‑generation AI‑SOCs.

LogiC-Diff: Embedding Security Properties Into AI-Enabled Cyber-Physical Systems

The paper introduces LogiC-Diff, a logic-conditioned bi-stage diffusion framework that embeds Signal Temporal Logic (STL) specifications into AI-enabled cyber‑physical system (CPS) forecasting models. By using STL as a conditioning signal, the method repairs inputs and refines outputs to jointly mitigate adversarial perturbations and enforce desired temporal behaviors. Experiments on two real‑world CPS datasets show that LogiC-Diff consistently improves robustness and specification compliance across various sensor faults and cyber attacks, outperforming reconstruction‑based defenses.
