Overview
Red Teaming is essentially prompt-based adversarial testing. It’s a practice where attacks on an organization's AI systems are simulated, to identify weaknesses.
Mend AI Red Teaming provides a single-pane-of-glass experience with dynamic AI Insights within the Mend AppSec Platform, enabling users to conduct red teaming and dynamic security tests specifically tailored for AI applications, enhancing the ability to identify, analyze, and mitigate vulnerabilities in AI systems.
It is designed to assist organizations in meeting the rigorous testing and vulnerability management standards set forth by the EU AI Act, CRA, and other global AI security frameworks.
