What
InfosecTrain, a leading cybersecurity training provider, is organizing a free masterclass on Hacking AI Systems: Exploits, Defenses, and the Future of Red Teaming. As AI-powered applications, large language models, and autonomous agents become part of everyday business operations, they are introducing entirely new attack surfaces that traditional security testing does not fully address. This masterclass will help participants understand how AI systems can be targeted, exploited, and secured through modern AI red teaming practices. The session will explore the AI attack surface, including prompts, embeddings, plugins, memory, and external tools, while highlighting how AI security testing differs from conventional application penetration testing. Through practical demonstrations, participants will see how attacks such as prompt injection, system prompt leakage, sensitive information disclosure, and excessive agent permissions can impact AI systems. The masterclass will also cover AI pentesting methodologies, defensive security controls, and blue team strategies for detecting and mitigating AI-specific threats. The session will conclude with an interactive Q&A and a discussion of real-world scenarios.

When
21 Jul (Tue)
08:00 – 10:00 PM (IST)

Why Attend
As organizations rapidly deploy AI-powered applications, attackers are discovering new ways to manipulate, misuse, and compromise these systems. Understanding AI-specific attack techniques is becoming an essential skill for penetration testers, red teamers, security researchers, application security professionals, and anyone responsible for securing AI environments. This masterclass will provide practical insights into how AI systems are tested, how common AI attacks work, and the defensive techniques needed to reduce risk. Participants will also gain exposure to AI red teaming methodologies, industry-recognized frameworks, and hands-on demonstrations that bridge the gap between traditional offensive security and the next generation of AI security testing.

Attendees will earn a CPE certificate, receive free career guidance and mentorship, and learn directly from experienced industry experts.

Agenda
• Introduction
- Why AI systems are a new attack surface
- Real-world cases of AI misuse and vulnerabilities
- Setting expectations for demos and outcomes

• Understanding the AI Attack Surface
- Components: prompts, embeddings, plugins, external tools, memory
- Differences between traditional app pentesting vs AI pentesting
- Mapping threats to frameworks (MITRE ATT&CK for AI, OWASP LLM Top 10)

• Hands-On Demo: Exploiting AI Systems
- Prompt Injection → bypassing guardrails
- Sensitive Information Disclosure → unintended data leakage
- System Prompt Leakage → extracting hidden instructions
- Excessive Agency → agents executing unintended actions

• Pentesting Methodology for AI Systems
- Reconnaissance: AI-powered OSINT, banner grabbing, fingerprinting
- Exploitation: adversarial prompts, poisoning embeddings
- Post-exploitation: persistence in agent workflows, unauthorized tool use
- Safe lab setup for AI pentesting (VMs, sandboxed APIs)

• Defensive Countermeasures (Blue Team View)
- Guardrails: input validation, adversarial testing, monitoring
- Human-in-the-loop strategies
- Logging and anomaly detection for AI interactions
- Case study: spotting prompt injection attempts

• Interactive Q&A and Scenario Discussion
