In an exclusive interview with The Register, Block CISO James Nettesheim outlines how Block secures Goose, the company's open-source AI agent used by nearly all of its 12,000 employees. He describes red-team testing that executed a prompt-injection infostealer, then details mitigations including least-privilege access, recipe-install warnings, invisible-Unicode detection, and adversarial-ML checks to validate inputs and outputs for safer enterprise deployment.
