Managing Security in RAG Applications
Depending on the environment in which you are building your retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) application, security failures can lead to legal liability, reputation damage, and costly service disruptions. RAG systems present unique security risks, primarily due to their reliance on external data sources for enhancing content generation. To address these risks, we will dive deep into the world of RAG application security, exploring both the security-related advantages and potential risks associated with this technology.
In this chapter, the topics that we will cover include the following:
- How RAG can be leveraged as a security solution
- RAG security challenges
- Red teaming
- Common areas to target with red teaming
- Code lab 5.1 – Securing your code
- Code lab 5.2 – Red team attack!
- Code lab 5.3 – Blue team defend!
By the end of the chapter, you will have a comprehensive understanding of...
