Try a sample question

Indirect prompt injection differs from direct injection because

  1. it requires retraining the target model on poisoned data first
  2. the attacker must have administrator access to the model's servers
  3. it only works against models that have no system prompt at all
  4. the malicious instructions arrive through content the model reads, like a web page
Show the answer

D. the malicious instructions arrive through content the model reads, like a web page — Any untrusted content in context is an attack surface. The real test has 25 questions like this.
