Red Team vs Blue Team
Understanding both sides is essential for security. 4 minute read.
🔴 Red Team (Attackers)
- 🎯Simulate attackers and probe systems for vulnerabilities
- 🔍Attempt unauthorized access and document weaknesses
- 💬In AI security: craft prompts to bypass LLM safeguards
- 📋Report findings to help improve defenses
🔵 Blue Team (Defenders)
- 🛡️Build security controls and monitor for attacks
- 🚨Respond to incidents and contain threats
- 🔧Design robust system prompts and filter outputs
- 📊Detect abuse patterns and improve over time
🤝 Why Both Perspectives Matter
You can't defend what you don't understand. The best security teams have members who think like attackers AND defenders. AI War Games trains the red team mindset first—understanding attacks is the foundation of defense.
Story Mode = Red Team training. You attack simulated vulnerable LLMs. Future: Blue Team mode where you'll design defenses and test them against AI attacks.
💼 Career Relevance
Companies are hiring AI Red Teamers, LLM Security Engineers, and AI Safety Researchers. OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and enterprise companies all need people who understand these risks. This isn't just a game—it's career-relevant training.
