Why it matters

Prompt injection remains the number one risk for LLM applications, and explainer content helps defenders and exam candidates understand why models cannot reliably separate instructions from data.

CertMike (Mike Chapple) presents an educational video explaining prompt injection attacks against LLMs, covering direct and indirect prompt injection, jailbreaking, and why the OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications ranks prompt injection as the top risk. The content is framed as certification exam preparation (CISSP, Security+, etc.) and explains the mechanism conceptually rather than disclosing a specific exploit.
