Course Overview

Unlock the intricacies of securing cutting-edge AI models in this comprehensive course on pentesting Large Language Models (LLMs). Explore the vulnerabilities unique to LLMs and learn practical strategies to safeguard these transformative technologies, addressing challenges in data, model, and infrastructure security. Designed for AI enthusiasts, security professionals, and developers, this course bridges the gap between advanced AI technologies and robust cybersecurity practices. 

This course begins with an introduction to the foundational concepts of Large Language Models, including their architecture, applications, and security challenges. It delves into critical aspects of LLM security, such as protecting data, model integrity, and infrastructure, while addressing ethical concerns. Next, you’ll explore offensive strategies, such as the LLM OWASP Top 10, API exploitation, and prompt injection techniques. Finally, the course shifts to defensive strategies, covering input sanitization, robust model guardrails, and filtering techniques to mitigate vulnerabilities effectively. 

By completing this course, you’ll gain a comprehensive understanding of LLM pentesting, equipping you to secure AI systems against emerging threats and ensuring safe, responsible AI deployment.
