Sure! Here’s the translation to American English:
Today, the preview of “Actions in Edge” has been announced, a new experimental feature of the browser that allows users to utilize modern models of computing agents to perform various tasks. This initiative aims to test and advance research in this technology and invites a select group of users to explore its possibilities, while also acknowledging the associated risks.
User security remains a top priority for the company, which is closely collaborating with the artificial intelligence and security research community. We are witnessing the development of innovative approaches to mitigate risks, including the implementation of robust defense mechanisms against potential attacks, such as command injection. This type of attack has grown in sophistication and is a concern since the advent of AI assistants, as they can manipulate model instructions and expose confidential data.
In response to these challenges, various defense strategies have been presented, ranging from limiting untrusted inputs to detecting deviations in tasks requested by the user. In this initial phase of the project, access to sites deemed risky has been blocked, and protections aligned with Microsoft Defender SmartScreen technology have been implemented, which already protects millions of users from fraud and malware.
Additionally, the “Actions in Edge” feature is testing advanced techniques to monitor its own behavior and detect deviations that may compromise user security. This monitoring includes relevance checks and authorization requests for interactions involving sensitive information.
The initiative also sets limits on the system’s actions with dangerous data, restricting interactions with advanced browser settings and preventing access to critical information such as passwords and form data.
With this preview, the company aims to gather feedback from the community to enhance both the security and functionality of “Actions in Edge.” Collaboration will be facilitated through a Discord channel enabled for users to share their experiences and suggestions. The company remains optimistic about the potential of this technology and reiterates its commitment to security in the digital environment.
