The ultimate guide on prompt injection

What's this blog post about?

Prompt injection is a security concern for applications using LLMs (Large Language Models) where users can give arbitrary instructions to the LLM, potentially bypassing censorship and revealing sensitive information. This is similar to SQL injection but has become a serious issue with the rise of AI-driven SaaS tools. Solutions include risk analysis, removing or replacing risky LLM technology, using prompt engineering best practices, evaluating the ethos of queries, following the Principle of Least Privilege, parsing user input before it gets to the LLM, and structuring data for more consistent results.
