Is pen testing still important when you build with AI?
More than ever. AI adds new ways in. An attacker can plant instructions in content your model consumes, steer it toward untrusted sources, and slowly corrupt the data it relies on. Many of these weaknesses aren't visible until someone actively looks for them.
The most reliable approach combines:
✔ Threat modeling, to map where your AI system is exposed
✔ Pen testing, to confirm which of those gaps attackers could really use
Every new feature or integration changes your attack surface, so this isn't a one-off check. It's part of building AI responsibly.
