StrongREJECT provides a standardized benchmark and evaluator for jailbreak attacks that aligns better with human judgments than prior methods and reveals that successful jailbreaks often reduce model capabilities.
ASTRA is an automated closed-loop framework that discovers, retrieves, and evolves jailbreak attack strategies for LLMs using a dynamic three-tier strategy library and outperforms baselines in black-box settings.
