LLM Security and Vulnerabilities

Identify, analyze, and defend against the security vulnerabilities that arise when Large Language Models (LLMs) are integrated into production applications. This course begins with how LLMs function in applications—tokenization, next-token prediction, and the architectural patterns that determine attack surface—then surveys real-world application types including Application Programming Interface (API)-based services, embedded-model deployments, and multi-model orchestration pipelines. You will examine each architecture's distinct security profile and the trade-offs that shape deployment decisi…
