The durable operating functions of AI Security Engineering.
3,411 of 10,152 unique arXiv papers in the current pull are strict AI-security papers, already naming concrete work in prompt/generation security, agentic action security, model and ML attack security, governance assurance, privacy protection, MCP/tool-use security, and red teaming.
AI red teaming is frequently described as a standalone activity even though durable value depends on control engineering, telemetry, replay, remediation, and regression.
What companies really mean by AI Security Engineer and why the operating model is lagging the technology.
