Put AI Red Teaming Knowledge into Practice
Prepare to investigate how an AI system behaves, explain a security finding, and reason about the limits of a defense.
Investigate an attack
Understand how prompt injection and jailbreaking can redirect model behavior. Practice within an authorized environment and record the inputs and outputs you observe.
Explain the result
Describe what happened, why it matters, and how someone else could reproduce it. Distinguish an observed result from an assumption about the system.
Evaluate a defense
Compare an attack with a proposed mitigation. Consider where the defense helps, where it can fail, and which legitimate uses it might affect.
