NSS Labs Introduces AI Protection Systems Test Framework

Apr 28, 2026
NSS Labs has released the AI Protection Systems test methodology, a framework for evaluating the security of enterprise AI deployments across eight key dimensions, including prompt injection resistance and data exfiltration prevention.

NSS Labs announced in a press release the release of its AI Protection Systems (AIPS) test methodology. The framework establishes a comprehensive structure for evaluating the security of enterprise AI deployments.

The AIPS methodology uses a multi-dimensional adversarial testing approach to reflect the complexity and unpredictability of modern AI threat environments. It assesses AI protection systems across eight dimensions: prompt injection resistance, data exfiltration prevention, system resilience, policy enforcement accuracy, agentic AI and tool invocation security, observability and auditability, performance and scalability, and cross-model integration.

NSS Labs is accepting feedback from enterprises and security vendors on the current version of the methodology until May 15.

Tensordyne Napier: What If One Rack Could Do the Work of Nine?

Tensordyne

This Tensordyne whitepaper presents Napier, an inference-focused AI processor and rack-scale system based on the company’s TDN Math logarithmic number system. It examines infrastructure requirements for large mixture-of-experts and agentic models, compares major inference architecture approaches, and details the TDN AIP processor, TDN72 pod, TDN Link fabric, and Napier Ultra configuration. The paper reports simulation-based performance, cost, and accuracy-validation results, including Tensordyne’s projected comparison of one Napier rack with a nine-rack Nvidia Rubin plus Groq deployment; the chip is reported as taped out and in fabrication.
