Prompt Injection DeBERTa
finetuned DeBERTa-based prompt injection detection
Build secure, reliable, and long-term AI systems focused on safety, reasoning, and developer tooling.
Open datasets, classifiers, and tooling for prompt-injection detection and agent red-teaming. Deterministic where it can be, honest about where it can't.

pip install asrt-bench) โ catch AI-agent safety regressions from real tool-call tracesFour focused datasets carved from one corpus, each training a model on one decision. Labels are generated by a 14B open-weight model and then cleaned: contradictory labels removed, exact duplicates dropped, and split per unique text so no prompt appears in more than one split โ verified zero train/validation/test leakage, so test scores mean something.
| Dataset | Predicts | Classes |
|---|---|---|
| prompt-injection-binary | malicious vs. benign | 2 |
| prompt-injection-intent | the attacker's goal (system extraction, role hijack, tool abuse, โฆ) | 7 |
| prompt-injection-technique | the delivery method (encoding, payload splitting, context overflow, โฆ) | 8 |
| prompt-injection-severity | how dangerous a successful bypass would be | 3 |

The most-used release โ a binary injection/jailbreak corpus with group-aware, zero-leakage splits and deliberate hard negatives (benign prompts that look like attacks). Great default for training a binary detector.
binary + multiclass configs.surface was single-class; ambiguity was ~99% one label). Prefer the clean datasets for any new work.One small model per Threat Matrix dimension, run together to build a structured threat profile for a prompt:
Input Prompt
โโโ binary โ benign / malicious
โโโ intent โ what the attacker wants
โโโ technique โ how the payload is built
โโโ severity โ how dangerous a bypass would be
โโโ surface โ where the injection enters
โ
Combined threat vector โ downstream verdict
Metrics note: the specialists were trained on the earlier categorized splits. Those splits have since been found to leak between train and test, so the original headline accuracies overstate real-world performance. Re-validated numbers on the leakage-free datasets above are in progress โ see each model card for its current status.

The multi-axis labels here are model-generated (a 14B open-weight labeler), not human gold labels. They're strong for training and benchmarking, but they are annotations, not ground truth โ every card says so. Datasets ship leakage-free splits; where a model's numbers predate that fix, the card says that too. Test only systems you're authorized to test.
Apache-2.0 unless a repo states otherwise. Each dataset/model card carries a BibTeX entry โ please cite the specific repository you use.
