Blue41 describes a controlled security test of Bunq’s financial AI assistant involving indirect prompt injection through transaction data.

The post argues that filters alone are insufficient; financial AI agents need stronger trust boundaries, context minimization, constrained outputs, and runtime behavior monitoring.
