Prompt Injection Detection is Regime-Dependent: A Deployment-Aware Evaluation with Interpretable Structural Signals

Prompt injection poses a critical threat to the safe deployment of large language models, yet existing detection approaches are typically evaluated under limited settings that do not reflect real-world operating constraints. In this work, we present a deployment-aware evaluation of prompt injection detection using a multi-model and multi-regime experimental framework. We compare lexical, semantic, structural, and transformer-based detectors across multiple out-of-distribution settings, repeated data splits, and both ranking and thresholded deployment metrics. We introduce interpretable structural signals that capture hierarchy overrides, system prompt spoofing, role redefinition, and evas...
