Prompt Safety

Definitions

1. The practice of designing prompts and prompt-handling systems so they are resistant to misuse, injection, leakage, or unsafe behavior. Prompt safety overlaps with model safety but focuses specifically on instruction and context handling.

   In plain English: Keeping prompts and prompt handling safe from misuse or failure.

   Example: "The security review highlighted prompt safety because external documents were being inserted into hidden context without strong sanitization."
