Prompt Injection Defense Advanced
Go beyond the basics. Master advanced prompt injection techniques and state-of-the-art defenses including sandwich defense, instruction hierarchy, canary tokens, and ML-based detection systems.
Your Learning Path
Follow these lessons in order, or jump to any topic that interests you.
1. Introduction
Advanced injection landscape, why basic defenses fail, and the arms race between attackers and defenders.
2. Direct Injection
Advanced direct injection techniques including encoding attacks, token manipulation, and multi-modal injection.
3. Indirect Injection
Sophisticated indirect injection via documents, web content, RAG pipelines, and multi-step attack chains.
4. Multi-layer Defense
Sandwich defense, instruction hierarchy, prompt armor, delimiter strategies, and defense composition.
5. Detection Systems
Canary tokens, ML-based injection classifiers, perplexity analysis, and ensemble detection approaches.
6. Best Practices
Production deployment strategies, continuous testing, defense evolution, and building injection-resilient systems.
What You'll Learn
By the end of this course, you'll be able to:
Analyze Advanced Attacks
Understand and reproduce sophisticated injection techniques that bypass common defenses.
Build Layered Defenses
Implement multi-layer defense architectures using sandwich defense, instruction hierarchy, and prompt armor.
Deploy Detection Systems
Build and deploy ML-based injection detection classifiers and canary token systems.
Test Continuously
Establish automated red teaming and regression testing pipelines for injection defenses.
