Adversarial Robustness: Red-Team Researcher

Overview

As AI systems become more prevalent, they face increasing threats from sophisticated attacks designed to manipulate or extract information from them. This hands-on course equips participants with practical red-team skills to test the adversarial robustness of high-risk AI systems, helping organisations identify vulnerabilities before malicious actors can exploit them.

What You Will Learn

• Perform prompt injection and jailbreak attacks on AI models
• Execute data poisoning techniques and understand their impact
• Conduct model inversion and membership inference attacks
• Test and evaluate defences aligned with prEN 18228 Clause 6.4
• Apply relevant requirements from EU AI Act Article 15
• Create structured test reports and recommend appropriate mitigations

Who Should Take This Course

This course is designed for AI safety and security professionals, red-team testers, compliance officers, risk managers, and technical leads responsible for high-risk AI systems. It is particularly valuable for organisations subject to the EU AI Act or similar regulatory standards.
