Block release pending remediation decision: What is the most direct missing control?
Known red-team findings require remediation or documented residual-risk authorization before release, regardless of favorable benchmark results.
The question
During procurement of a software-assistance model, red-team testing identifies prompt-injection and confidential-data leakage paths. The supplier provides a favorable benchmark, but remediation evidence and residual-risk acceptance are absent. All other procurement controls are satisfied. What is the most direct missing control?

- Block release pending remediation decision ✓Documented red-team findings require remediation or an authorized residual-risk decision before release, rather than allowing benchmark results to close the gap.
- Add quarterly supplier performance reportingPeriodic reporting supports ongoing oversight, but the immediate release decision requires treatment or explicit acceptance of known findings.
- Expand employee training on secure promptingTraining may reduce some misuse, but it cannot by itself address confidential-data leakage paths or document residual-risk authorization.
- Request a larger supplier benchmarkA larger benchmark may add evidence, but it does not resolve known injection and leakage findings or establish risk acceptance.
The trap
Known high-consequence findings outweigh generic benchmark comfort until treatment or accountable risk acceptance is documented. How to remember it
