Abstract: Adversarial attacks pose an important threat to the security and trustworthiness of large language models (LLMs). These models are vulnerable to carefully engineered input designed to exploit their weaknesses, degrade system performance, and extract private information. Practical countermeasures need a strong offensive strategy that includes adversarial scenarios simulation to test how models hold up in various conditions. Adversarial data poisoning and evasion techniques are particularly useful as they can reveal strengths during training and inference processes, respectively. Through systematic identification and mitigation of every vulnerability, organizations can strengthen the model's robustness to real-world attacks. This technical framework also emphasizes the need to embed adversarial simulations into the security cycle of LLMs to prevent risks associated with malicious actors. Via iterative analysis, an organization can increase the robustness of a model and build a resilient infrastructure for secure implementation of LLMs in sensitive/high-level environments.
