Frequently asked questions
What are the biggest AI security threats?
Prompt injection, data and model exfiltration through model output, training-data poisoning, insecure plugins and agents, and over-broad permissions. Many map to the OWASP Top 10 for large language model applications.
What is AI red teaming?
Red teaming is structured adversarial testing that tries to make an AI system misbehave before attackers do. It probes for jailbreaks, data leakage and unsafe actions, and feeds the findings back into controls.
How do you secure an AI system?
Treat the model like any other untrusted input path: constrain permissions, validate inputs and outputs, monitor for exfiltration, govern system prompts, and test adversarially. Defence in depth, not a single guardrail.
