*Core concept* · *Emerging*

## Definition

Knowledge graph poisoning is the introduction of inaccurate or misleading information into a knowledge graph — through false Wikipedia edits, incorrect Wikidata entries, or manipulated structured data — with the effect of corrupting an AI system's representation of an entity. It is a form of information manipulation that affects AI-generated outputs.

## Why It Matters for AI Search

Knowledge graph poisoning is a risk that brands need to monitor rather than a tactic they should pursue. For brand protection, monitoring Wikidata and Wikipedia entries for unauthorized or inaccurate edits — and correcting them promptly — is part of a complete AI search management program. Accurate entity data is not just an optimization goal; it is a brand protection imperative in environments where AI systems derive their characterizations from knowledge graphs that can be edited.
