## Antes de Iniciar

Role required: sn_generative_ai.nsa_admin

## Por Que e Quando Desempenhar Esta Tarefa

Prompt injection attacks are a type of cybersecurity attack where someone tries to override the initial instructions of an LLM to cause unintended behaviors. Now Assist Guardian can detect and log these attack attempts, and you can choose whether you want to block the AI-generated response after the attack has been attempted.

See [Now Assist Guardian](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/iBETeNhPiFfTK7P_nThD6g "Enable Now Assist Guardian, built with ServiceNow Small Language Model, to monitor and evaluate content created with generative AI to help protect and enhance the user experience.") for more information.

Logs can be exported for review. For instructions on how to do so, see [Export Now Assist Guardian logs](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/LT8Gte~jtcg_DIlNXFJ8Lw "Export logs from Now Assist Guardian to get insights into how often different guardrails are being detected and used.").

## Procedimento

1. Navigate to AllNow Assist AdminSettings.
2. In the side panel, go to Now Assist GuardianPrompt Injection.
3. Select the toggle to change the active status of prompt injection attack protection.  
   Prompt injection attack protection is enabled by default, which means Now Assist Guardian logs attempts unless you turn it off.
4. **Opcional:** Under Detection impact, select the options icon (![Options icon.]()) and then choose Edit to change the detection impact.  
   You can choose whether prompt injection attacks are blocked as well as logged.


## Resultado

You have configured whether prompt injection attack protection is enabled on your instance and determined what you want Now Assist Guardian to do in case of an attempt.
