Description

Adversarial attacks trick AI systems with malicious data, creating new security risks by exploiting how AI learns. This challenges cybersecurity as it forces us to defend against a whole new kind of threat. This book demystifies adversarial attacks and equips cybersecurity professionals with the skills to secure AI technologies, moving beyond research hype or business-as-usual strategies. The strategy-based book is a comprehensive guide to AI security, presenting a structured approach with practical examples to identify and counter adversarial attacks. This book goes beyond a random selection of threats and consolidates recent research and industry standards, incorporating taxonomies from MITRE, NIST, and OWASP. Next, a dedicated section introduces a secure-by-design AI strategy with threat modeling to demonstrate risk-based defenses and strategies, focusing on integrating MLSecOps and LLMOps into security systems. To gain deeper insights, you’ll cover examples of incorporating CI, MLOps, and security controls, including open-access LLMs and ML SBOMs. Based on the classic NIST pillars, the book provides a blueprint for maturing enterprise AI security, discussing the role of AI security in safety and ethics as part of Trustworthy AI. By the end of this book, you’ll be able to develop, deploy, and secure AI systems effectively.

Who is this book for?

This book tackles AI security from both angles - offense and defense. AI builders (developers and engineers) will learn how to create secure systems, while cybersecurity professionals, such as security architects, analysts, engineers, ethical hackers, penetration testers, and incident responders will discover methods to combat threats and mitigate risks posed by attackers. The book also provides a secure-by-design approach for leaders to build AI with security in mind. To get the most out of this book, you’ll need a basic understanding of security, ML concepts, and Python.

What you will learn

What are credits?

Credits can be earned from reading 40 section of any title within the payment cycle - a month starting from the day of subscription payment. You also earn a Credit every month if you subscribe to our annual or 18 month plans. Credits can be used to buy books DRM free, the same way that you would pay for a book. Your credits can be found in the subscription homepage - subscription.packtpub.com - clicking on ‘the my’ library dropdown and selecting ‘credits’.

What happens if an Early Access Course is cancelled?

Projects are rarely cancelled, but sometimes it's unavoidable. If an Early Access course is cancelled or excessively delayed, you can exchange your purchase for another course. For further details, please contact us here.

Where can I send feedback about an Early Access title?

If you have any feedback about the product you're reading, or Early Access in general, then please fill out a contact form here and we'll make sure the feedback gets to the right team.

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles?

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date?

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.

How will I know when new chapters are ready?

We'll let you know every time there has been an update to a course that you've bought in Early Access. You'll get an email to let you know there has been a new chapter, or a change to a previous chapter. The new chapters are automatically added to your account, so you can also check back there any time you're ready and download or read them online.

I am a Packt subscriber, do I get Early Access?

Yes, all Early Access content is fully available through your subscription. You will need to have a paid for or active trial subscription in order to access all titles.

How is Early Access delivered?

Early Access is currently only available as a PDF or through our online reader. As we make changes or add new chapters, the files in your Packt account will be updated so you can download them again or view them online immediately.

How do I buy Early Access content?

Early Access is a way of us getting our content to you quicker, but the method of buying the Early Access course is still the same. Just find the course you want to buy, go through the check-out steps, and you’ll get a confirmation email from us with information and a link to the relevant Early Access courses.

What is Early Access?

Keeping up to date with the latest technology is difficult; new versions, new frameworks, new techniques. This feature gives you a head-start to our content, as it's being created. With Early Access you'll receive each chapter as it's written, and get regular updates throughout the product's development, as well as the final course as soon as it's ready.We created Early Access as a means of giving you the information you need, as soon as it's available. As we go through the process of developing a course, 99% of it can be ready but we can't publish until that last 1% falls in to place. Early Access helps to unlock the potential of our content early, to help you start your learning when you need it most.

I recently received a copy of @Packt Publishing’s Adversarial AI Attacks, Mitigations, and Defense Strategies from @John Sotiropoulos. This book outlines that various types of AI attacks along with the anatomy and design of these attacks. The author provides information on the architecture and setup that can be used for detailed analysis, mitigation, and defense of these attacks. There is also a complete section on generative AI and how it is used for a new level of attacks. Throughout this book, the author has done a great job of developing understanding and knowledge for the reader about these attacks, how they are created, and how you can protect your environment against them. This book is highly recommended for anyone that is looking for a level of understanding about how to architect, monitor, and defend against AI attacks.

A highly necessary book in the field, this comprehensive guide to AI security offers a structured understanding of key issues, complete with hands-on examples. A must-read for all IT professionals this summer.

Matthew Kiely Oct 28, 2024

This book is an essential read for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of adversarial AI.It goes beyond merely explaining how these attacks operate, it shows you how to set up a test environment to simulate these attacks and observe their impact on machine learning models.It’s indepth and not for the faint hearted!The hands-on approach allows you to see how adversarial techniques can corrupt AI systems.It is a well-rounded resource for both aspiring and seasoned AI professionals

Andy Aug 29, 2024

The author really knows his stuff and lays it out in a very approachable way. The writing and graphics are good, and the layout is very logical. That said, you better have solid AI design and cybersecurity in your recent past. Sample code for setting up the environment and defenses against the top AI attacks for predictive and generativeAI environments. Guidance is provided for DevSecOps, MLOps, and LLMOps, so you can build security in from the planning stage or apply mitigation strategies to environments already in operation. I love that he provides reference architecture diagrams that include the potential attacks (the snipped graphic on this review is from the book) and on which part of the architecture different attacks focus.The book is just under 600 pages, there isn’t any fluff, and it is very hands-on. It hits multiple audiences with various role focuses. That said, it is more like an encyclopedia for teams involved in AI at a company than it is a book for an individual, one that should be read end-to-end and then referenced as needed. Nice job.

Brandon Lachterman Sep 06, 2024

I really enjoyed this book, and it will be a fixture on my virtual shelf for reference. In a subject just getting more traction, this book gets down to brass tax and covers the subjects any reader is looking for, while leaving out the extra fluff. Very technical, but clear to understand. Highly recommend.
