Episode 502 - Azure Open AI and Security
Azure Open AI is widely used in industry but there are number of security aspects that must be taken into account when using the technology. Luckily for us, Audrey Long, a Software Engineer at Microsoft, security expert and renowned conference speaker, gives us insights into securing LLMs and provides various tips, tricks and tools to help developers use these models safely in their applications.

This system uses an ensemble of classification models to detect and prevent harmful content in both input prompts and output completions The filtering system covers four main categories: hate, sexual, violence, and self-harm Each category is assessed at four severity levels: safe, low, medium, and high Additional classifiers are available for detecting jailbreak risks and known content for text and code.
