Secure the Future: AI Security Training with Rakuten

​In the rapidly evolving landscape of Artificial Intelligence, securing AI systems is paramount. This training dives deep into the emerging threat landscape surrounding Generative AI, equipping you with the knowledge and skills to defend against sophisticated attacks. We'll move beyond theoretical concepts and focus on practical vulnerabilities like Prompt Injection, Prompt Extraction, and the exploitation of agent-based GenAI systems.

​This training will empower you to think like an attacker targeting AI, including a hands-on, practical approach to AI security, suitable for developers, security professionals, and anyone working with Generative AI. You'll learn to identify, exploit, and mitigate critical risks specific to AI systems. By understanding the attacker's perspective, you'll be better prepared to maintain the integrity of your AI-powered applications.

​Key Benefits:

• ​Think Like an AI Attacker: Learn to analyze your AI systems with a security-first mindset, identifying potential weaknesses related to prompt manipulation and agent exploitation before they are exploited.

• ​Prioritize AI-Specific Defenses: Discover a practical methodology to assess risks unique to AI and focus your security efforts on the most critical threats, such as prompt injection and unauthorized command execution. You'll learn how to choose the right security measures to effectively prevent specific AI attacks.

• ​Build Robust AI Systems: Learn how to implement secure coding practices, input validation techniques, and robust access controls to create secure and reliable AI applications and services.

• ​Real-World Practice: Gain hands-on experience applying attack and defense techniques to real-world AI systems and architectures, including prompt engineering, agent-based systems, and large language models. You'll confidently use these skills in your own AI projects.

​Training Requirements:

• ​A laptop or Smartphone with internet access.

• ​Familiarity with GenAI.

• ​Read about Prompt Injection techniques.

• ​Read about common GenAI agent architectures and vulnerabilities.
