Efficient and Adaptable Detection of Malicious LLM Prompts via Bootstrap Aggregation
A bagging-based detection method for malicious LLM prompts offers a lightweight, adaptable guardrail that enterprises deploying black-box language models can layer atop existing content filters.

arXiv:2602.08062v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large Language Models have demonstrated remarkable capabilities in natural language understanding. However, they remain susceptible to malicious prompts that induce unsafe or policy-violating behavior. Existing defenses in black-box moderation APIs offer limited transparency and adapt poorly to evolving threats, while white-box approaches using large LLM judges impose prohibitive computational costs and require expensive retraining for n
Editorial Analysis
With the EU AI Act requiring risk controls on general-purpose AI, efficient prompt-level defences become a practical compliance enabler for enterprises consuming third-party LLMs.
Evaluate adding prompt-classification guardrails to your LLM gateway as part of AI risk management under the EU AI Act.
