Researchers have introduced DSPrompt, a novel defense framework designed to protect Multimodal Retrieval Augmented Generation (M-RAG) systems from adversarial attacks. Unlike existing methods that add inference overhead, DSPrompt dynamically reshapes the retriever's embedding semantics by inserting learnable soft prompts into the visual and textual encoders. This approach trains the system using a min-max scheme where an attacker crafts adversarial documents, and the defender learns to push them out of the top-k rankings while preserving benign data. Experiments show DSPrompt significantly reduces attack success rates with minimal computational cost and parameter addition, outperforming current defense baselines. AI
