Disesdi Susanna Cox outlines 3 critical threats:
1. Non-deterministic decisions – same prompt, different actions (e.g., unintended transfers).
2. Cascading failures – multi-step tasks = more attack surface.
3. Emergent behavior – guardrails can’t cover infinite edge cases; focus on blast radius and recovery.

3 Controls to Implement Now: 
• Map agent workflows to attack tactics (MITRE ATLAS)
• Weekly prompt-injection tests (OWASP + CSA)
• Least-privilege, expiring agent tokens (NIST AI RMF + CSA MAESTRO)

Which control or framework gives you the biggest headache, and how are you tackling it?
