Adversarial Robustness and LLM Red Teaming: A Unified Review of Security Toolkits

S. Muthuvel Akaassh Sundar

Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology  ·  Area of research: Artificial Intelligence

DOI: 10.64388/IREV9I5-1711918

Abstract

As advanced machine learning (ML) and large language model (LLM) systems are deployed at scale, the security perimeter has expanded to include both classical adversarial ML threats and LLM-specific risks such as prompt injection, jailbreaks, and sensitive information leakage. This paper presents a structured comparison of open source and community toolkits spanning these domains, covering canonical robustness libraries and orchestration utilities for deployment alongside modern LLM and agent security tooling for attack automation, red teaming, and runtime defenses, plus adjacent capabilities in deception, reverse engineering, and data centric audit/visualization.

Keywords
