Frequently Asked Questions
How is an AI attack surface different from a web app's?
Web apps have deterministic code paths, while AI systems respond probabilistically to natural language. Attacks can arrive in any text, so input validation and testing work differently.
Do traditional security controls still apply to AI?
Yes. Authentication, least privilege and network controls remain essential for AI systems. They are not enough alone, because the model's behavior itself can be manipulated and therefore needs extra safeguards.
What does probabilistic security mean?
It means the same input may not always produce the same output, so you test and measure risk statistically rather than assuming a fix is final. This beginner room on Codelivly is free.
