# AI Security Patterns
|
|
|
|
When building secure LLM applications, follow these patterns for protection against prompt injection, PII leakage, and unsafe outputs.
|
|
|
|
**Trigger Keywords**: prompt injection, AI security, PII redaction, content moderation, output filtering, jailbreak, security, sanitization, content safety, guardrails
|
|
|
|
**Agent Integration**: Used by `ml-system-architect`, `llm-app-engineer`, `security-engineer`, `agent-orchestrator-engineer`
|
|
|
|
## ✅ Correct Pattern: Prompt Injection Detection

## ❌ Anti-Patterns
|
|
|
|

|
|

|
|
response = await llm.complete(prompt)
|
|
|
|
# ✅ Better: Detect and prevent injection
|
|
detector = InjectionDetector()
|
|
if not detector.detect(user_input)["is_safe"]:
|
|
raise ValueError("Injection detected")
|
|
|
|
|
|
# ❌ Sending PII directly to LLM
|
|
prompt = f"Analyze this: {user_data}" # May contain SSN, email!
|
|
response = await llm.complete(prompt)
|
|
|
|
# ✅ Better: Redact PII first
|
|
redactor = PIIRedactor()
|
|
redacted = redactor.redact(user_data)["redacted_text"]
|
|
response = await llm.complete(redacted)
|
|
|
|
|
|
# ❌ No output filtering
|
|
return llm_response # Could contain harmful content!
|
|
|
|
# ✅ Better: Filter outputs
|
|
filter = ContentFilter()
|
|
result = filter.filter(llm_response)
|
|
if not result["is_safe"]:
|
|
return "[Content filtered]"
|
|
|
|
|
|
# ❌ No rate limiting
|
|
await llm.complete(user_input) # Can be abused!
|
|
|
|
# ✅ Better: Rate limit requests
|
|

|

|
|

|
|
|
|
## Best Practices Checklist
|
|
|
|
- ✅ Detect prompt injection attempts before processing
|
|
- ✅ Redact PII from inputs before sending to LLM
|
|
- ✅ Filter LLM outputs for unsafe content
|
|
- ✅ Use clear prompt boundaries (XML tags)
|
|
- ✅ Implement rate limiting per user/IP
|
|
- ✅ Log all security incidents
|
|
- ✅ Test with adversarial inputs
|
|
- ✅ Never include secrets in prompts
|
|
- ✅ Validate and sanitize all user inputs
|
|
- ✅ Monitor for unusual patterns
|
|
- ✅ Implement content moderation
|
|
- ✅ Use separate prompts for sensitive operations
|
|
|
|
## Auto-Apply
|
|
|
|
When building secure LLM applications:
|
|
1. Use InjectionDetector for all user inputs
|
|
2. Redact PII with PIIRedactor before LLM calls
|
|
3. Filter outputs with ContentFilter
|
|
4. Build prompts with SecurePromptBuilder
|
|
5. Implement rate limiting
|
|
6. Log security events
|
|
7. Test with injection attempts
|
