LLM Penetaration Testing
Modern AI and LLM features introduce new attack surfaces — from prompt injection and jailbreaking to data exfiltration and model poisoning. Praetorian’s AI penetration testing and LLM red-team assessments simulate real adversaries across the entire AI stack to uncover exploitable weaknesses, quantify business impact, and deliver prioritized remediation so you can deploy AI with confidence.

- Identify key risks linked to an organizations AI and ML use.
- Create both technical and process-based controls to solve these problems
- Test the effectiveness of security controls using our industry-leading offensive security team
- Establish a feedback loop between red team/ blue team operations for rapid iteration on security controls
Our Approach to AI Penetration Test
- Discovery & threat modeling — map every AI input/output, data source, and integration
- Attack surface mapping — identify UIs, APIs, RAG sources, agents, plugins, vector DBs.
- Adversarial prompt campaigns — manual + automated adversarial prompts and jailbreak sequences.
- Data & pipeline testing — RAG integrity, egress filtering, context origin attacks, training data poisoning simulations.
- Application & infra testing — OWASP-style checks in the AI context (SSRF, XSS, insecure output handling), plus privilege escalation.
- Impact analysis & remediation — business-risk scoring, playbookable fixes, and follow-up verification.
What we test for
- Prompt injection & jailbreak resistance
- Data leakage and RAG / retrieval pipeline evaluation
- Training/fine-tune poisoning & model backdoor checks
- Model extraction, inversion, and membership inference testing
- App & API abuse (chat UIs, function-calling, tool/plugin misuse)
- Lateral escalation and supply-chain attack scenarios
