LLM Red-temaing vs. Agent Red teaming
LLM red teaming vs agent red teaming comes down to one question: are you trying to break the model’s behavior, or the agent’s behavior across an entire workflow? LLM red teaming typically tests whether a model can be manipulated into producing unsafe, unintended, or policy-violating responses. It tests what happens when that model is connected to tools, data, APIs, memory, permissions, and business workflows, and can take actions on a user’s behalf.

Opening excerpt (first ~120 words) tap to expand
LLM red teaming vs agent red teaming comes down to one question: are you trying to break the model’s behavior, or the agent’s behavior across an entire workflow? LLM red teaming typically tests whether a model can be manipulated into producing unsafe, unintended, or policy-violating responses. Agent red teaming goes further. It tests what happens when that model is connected to tools, data, APIs, memory, permissions, and business workflows, and can take actions on a user’s behalf. A model may resist a jailbreak in isolation but behave differently when the same attack is combined with retrieved content, a tool call, or a multi-step workflow. That is why testing an AI agent requires looking beyond the final response, and even beyond the steps the agent takes.
