Joseph Lucas: What is Machine Learning Security Anyway?
Resources
Slides: https://github.com/data-umbrella/even...
DEFCON: https://aivillage.org/
Securing LLM Systems Against Prompt Injection: https://developer.nvidia.com/blog/sec...
About the Event
Securing machine learning development and products is increasingly relevant and a growing career field. Joe Lucas, a member of NVIDIA's AI Red Team, will be introducing the field of machine learning security to help attendees secure their own work and understand how to engage with this new domain of security.
