New method detects adversarial LLM prompts using sequential entropy changes

Researchers have developed a new method called CPD Online to detect adversarial prompts that attempt to jailbreak large language models. This technique treats prompt detection as an online change-point detection problem, analyzing sequential entropy changes in the model's token predictions. CPD Online is model-agnostic, requires no training, and can pinpoint the onset of malicious prompts, outperforming existing perplexity-based detectors on various open-weight models. AI

    Detecting Fluent Optimization-Based Adversarial Prompts via Sequential Entropy Changes

    Optimization-based adversarial suffixes can jailbreak aligned large language models (LLMs) while remaining fluent, weakening static and windowed perplexity-based detectors. We cast adversarial suffix detection as an online change-point detection problem over the token-level next-…
