RAG Pipeline Security Testing

Why this matters
Your knowledge base is only as secure as the queries that retrieve from it. Adversarial inputs bypass access controls and surface documents they should never reach: cross-tenant, cross-user, cross-permission.
We test the entire retrieval path — from query manipulation to vector DB poisoning — so confidential documents stay confidential.
“We retrieved confidential HR documents without elevated access.”
How Vynox tests
- Query manipulation to surface restricted documents
- Cross-tenant retrieval bypass testing
- Access control bypass via prompt crafting
- Vector DB poisoning path analysis
- Embedding inversion techniques
What's at stake if this goes untested
Document leakage
Confidential contracts, HR data, and IP exposed.
Cross-user exposure
User A retrieves User B's private data.
Compliance violations
GDPR, HIPAA, and SOC 2 evidence gaps.
IP theft
Proprietary knowledge base stolen.
Frequently asked questions
What is RAG security testing?
RAG security testing probes a retrieval-augmented generation pipeline for ways an attacker can surface documents they should not access — through query manipulation, cross-tenant retrieval, access-control bypass, or vector database poisoning. It tests the entire path from user input to retrieved content.
Can RAG systems really leak data they shouldn't?
Yes. If retrieval scope or access controls are too permissive, crafted queries can pull documents from other tenants, users, or permission levels. Indirect prompt injection via poisoned documents can also force the model to disclose restricted content.
Do you test our vector database directly?
We test the retrieval path as an attacker would reach it — through the application — and analyse vector DB poisoning and embedding inversion paths. We do not require direct database credentials, though access can deepen coverage.
