Robust Intelligence’s Post

🏛️ It's been another eventful month for #AIpolicy with California’s new AI bill sent to the governor, the enforcement of the EU AI Act, NIST requesting comments on a US AI Safety Institute draft document, and more! As the AI policy landscape continues its rapid evolution, many are having a difficult time navigating the complex amalgamation of frameworks, regulations, executive orders, and legislation. Check out our August AI Governance Policy Roundup to help you cut through the noise with a need-to-know snapshot of recent domestic and international updates: https://lnkd.in/gZDRvRSY Please reach out if you’d like to learn more about what these might mean for your company and how Robust Intelligence can help. #AIGovernance #AICompliance #EUAIAct #NIST #SB1047

#CWE provides a standardized taxonomy for identifying and categorizing software weaknesses, which has recently been expanded to include #AIsecurity categories. In this blog co-authored by Kate Farris, Ph.D. (Co-Chair of the CWE AI Working Group) and Alie Fordyce (Product Policy Manager at Robust Intelligence) we explore: 1️⃣ Background on the CWE list initiated by MITRE. 2️⃣ CWE in the context of AI. 3️⃣ What this means for AI security. 🌐 Read the blog: https://lnkd.in/ge42_KDX Understanding the AI-security weakness that can result in an AI-related vulnerability enables engineers to mitigate them before AI model deployment, strengthening the AI pipeline and saving costs by preventing downstream effects. Robust Intelligence has been proud to participate in the leadership of the CWE AI Working Group. Special thanks to Alec Summers and Steve Christey Coley for their work and review of this blog. #AIsecurity #LLMsecurity #cybersecurity #MITRE

Reflecting on the events of last week, our co-founder Kojin Oshiba emphasized the impact we'll have in securing AI-driven enterprises at Cisco scale. The future is bright! ✨ #AIsecurity #hiring

The BOOST method exploits eos (end of sequence) tokens to bypass ethical boundaries in LLMs. By appending eos tokens to harmful prompts, researchers were able to mislead LLMs into interpreting them as less harmful. Empirical evaluations were conducted on 12 state-of-the-art LLMs including GPT-4, Llama-2, and Gemma. Test results revealed that BOOST significantly enhanced attack success rates of existing jailbreak methods; for example, on Llama-2-7B-chat, BOOST improved the ASR by over 30%.
