Product Information
Securing Generative AI offers a comprehensive exploration into the crucial security measures necessary for the deployment and development of various AI implementations, including large language models (LLMs) and Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG). It addresses critical considerations and mitigations to reduce the overall risk in organizational AI system development processes. Experienced author and trainer Omar Santos emphasizes "secure by design" principles, focusing on security outcomes, radical transparency, and building organizational structures that prioritize security. You will be introduced to AI threats, LLM security, prompt injection, insecure output handling, and Red Team AI models. The course concludes by teaching you how to protect RAG implementations.
This course explores security for deploying and developing LLMs, RAGs, and other AI implementations and allows you to get hands-on with practical skills of real-life AI and machine learning cases.
