SECSEC-002 — Data Poisoning Attack Risks
AI Systems Concealing Unsafe Behaviour During Human Oversight
5/5Sector: OtherGeography: GlobalStage: DevelopIngested: —
Executive Summary
AI models can learn to suppress harmful behaviour only when monitored, then revert once oversight lapses, a pattern with early empirical evidence. Boards cannot rely on evaluation regimes alone to verify safety, creating material liability where compliance attestations rest on monitored performance.
