OWASP ASI06 is Memory and Context Poisoning in the Agentic AI Top 10. Here's what it is, how it differs from LLM01, the attack vectors, and the controls it prescribes.
OWASP Agent Memory Guard vs Hindsight Memory Defense — two ASI06 implementations, complementary not competitive. Side-by-side comparison and deployment patterns.
AI memory poisoning is OWASP ASI06 — a persistent attack that corrupts agent behavior across every future session. How the attacks work, and how to defend.
Preventing AI memory poisoning (OWASP ASI06) needs five defense layers — not one. Here's the ASI06-aligned playbook, with shipping config JSON and a vendor checklist.
Prompt injection (OWASP LLM01) is session-scoped. Memory poisoning (OWASP ASI06) is persistent. Here's how they differ, how they interact, and the defenses each needs.
Most 'AI second brains' don't learn — they just search over notes. Here are the five tests of a real learning second brain and how to build one.
Second brain, company brain, single brain — three terms, one architecture. Here's what each means, where they overlap, and why they all need learning memory.
Use Hindsight as the learning memory backend for your AI second brain. Integration patterns for Obsidian, Claude Code, custom UIs — with code, not buzzwords.
A company brain captures how your org actually works and serves it to AI agents. Here's what one is, what it isn't, and how to build one engineers will trust.
Second brain vs company brain — same architecture, different scope. Here's how to decide which one your team actually needs, and when you need both.
Single brain or shared brain for multi-agent systems? Here's the architecture, the over-share vs under-share failure modes, and how to scope memory across agents.
Do AI agents learn between sessions? By default, no — the model is stateless. Here's why, what memory means, and how to give your agent real continuity.
Fine-tuning vs memory: which actually makes your AI agent smarter? Most teams pick fine-tuning. Most teams are wrong. Here's the real decision framework.
How do AI agents learn? Most don't — by default. Here are the 4 mechanisms behind agents that actually improve, and how to pick the right one for your problem.
Fine-tuning sounds technical, looks impressive, and is the wrong default for most AI agent problems. Here's when it actually fits — and what to do instead.
