**ABOUT**
AI systems are becoming more sophisticated, so are the threats against them. While building and deploying AI models at scale, we face a growing array of security challenges that traditional software engineering never accounted for. This talk dives into the real-world threats facing machine learning and generative AI systems. We will explore how these attacks work and, more importantly, how to defend against them.
