LLM Safety, Red-Teaming, and Content Moderation

Design, attack, defend, and monitor LLM systems with clear policies, layered guardrails, and incident-ready playbooks.

LLM safety requires proactive red-teaming, robust filtering, clear refusal behaviors, and continuous monitoring. Pair model-level defenses with retrieval hygiene, policy enforcement, and post-processing to prevent harmful or non-compliant outputs.

Malware generation, fraud guidance, policy evasion

Input classification (toxicity, jailbreak, PII)

Context sanitation: strip HTML/scripts, allowlist domains
