Emerging technology security

Point Break Security helps organizations adopt AI and other emerging technologies securely. We test AI applications and agents against attacks such as prompt injection and data poisoning, build AI governance aligned with ISO/IEC 42001 and the EU AI Act, and prepare cryptography for the arrival of quantum computers.

FAQ

Questions about emerging technology security.

What is prompt injection?

Prompt injection is an attack in which malicious instructions are placed in the input or content an AI system processes, causing it to ignore its intended instructions, for example to leak data or misuse connected tools. It is ranked first in the OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications.

What is post-quantum cryptography?

Post-quantum cryptography (PQC) refers to encryption and signature algorithms designed to resist attacks by future quantum computers. NIST published the first PQC standards in August 2024: FIPS 203 (ML-KEM), FIPS 204 (ML-DSA) and FIPS 205 (SLH-DSA).

What does "harvest now, decrypt later" mean?

Adversaries can capture encrypted data today and store it until a sufficiently powerful quantum computer can decrypt it. Data that must remain confidential for many years is therefore already at risk, which is why migration to post-quantum cryptography should start early.

Does the EU AI Act apply to Swiss companies?

It can. The EU AI Act applies to providers placing AI systems on the EU market and to deployers in the EU, and also to providers and deployers outside the EU when the output of their AI systems is used in the EU.
