Base64

The Base64 attack method encodes a baseline attack using the Base64 algorithm, turning the text into a string of encoded characters. This helps avoid detection mechanisms by making the content appear as random data.

Usage

from deepteam import red_team
from deepteam.vulnerabilities import Bias
from deepteam.attacks.single_turn import Base64
from somewhere import your_callback

base64 = Base64(weight=2)

red_team(
    attacks=[base64], 
    vulnerabilities=[Bias()], 
    model_callback=your_callback
)

There are ONE optional parameter when creating a Base64 attack:

• [Optional] weight: an integer that determines this attack method's selection probability, proportional to the total weight sum of all attacks during red teaming. Defaulted to 1.

As a standalone

You can enhance any attack using the enhance method:

from deepteam.attacks.single_turn import Base64
from somewhere import your_callback

base_attack = "Your initial harmful prompt targeting a specific vulnerability"
base64 = Base64()

enhanced_attack = base64.enhance(base_attack)
print(enhanced_attack)
