In this course you will learn how the security of web-based software, including deployed AI agents, can be compromised. Real-world attacks we study are conducted against a variety of web technologies and frameworks. In addition, we will introduce the topic of Adversarial Machine Learning (exploiting algorithms and learning techniques) in the Artificial Intelligence domain, including Language Models. We will review and study modern, cutting-edge research in this area.
