CleanBase method detects malicious documents in RAG knowledge databases

Researchers have developed CleanBase, a novel method to identify malicious documents within retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) knowledge databases. The system leverages the high semantic similarity often found among malicious documents crafted for prompt injection attacks. CleanBase constructs a similarity graph where documents forming cliques are flagged as malicious, thereby enhancing the security and integrity of RAG systems. AI
