Unit 11: Secure AI Deployment & Model Robustness
Use these guardrails when deploying AI into production:
Input Sanitization — Strip out known exploit vectors and validate input types
Rate Limiting — Protect APIs from brute-force probing or model theft
Endpoint Authentication — Require access tokens or signatures to interact with the model
Audit Logging — Record every prediction, input, and endpoint request
Encryption Everywhere — Encrypt models at rest and in transit (TLS, AES-256)
