In preparation for two forthcoming articles on authorization on Retrieval-Augmented Generation (whose inadequate usage is an often-overlooked source of significant security problems), we have published a ~2-page overview of RAG - what it is, what role it plays, and how it is implemented. So, if you want to quickly gain a background on this technique used by AI-powered apps to incorporate relevant data beyond the LLM’s training set, take a look: A Brief Overview of Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) | Pangea.
This and a bunch of security-related articles are up on the Secure by Design Education Hub (Secure by Design Education Hub | Pangea). If you think this is valuable, please consider passing it along. And if you have any feedback or suggestions, we’d love to hear from you.
