AML.T0082
RAG Credential Harvesting

MITRE source definition

Adversaries may attempt to use their access to a large language model (LLM) on the victim's system to collect credentials. Credentials may be stored in internal documents which can inadvertently be ingested into a RAG database, where they can ultimately be retrieved by an AI agent.

Simulation and telemetry boundary

This is a technique reference page, not a runnable simulation. No ATLAS-specific telemetry mapping, local attack execution or detector validation is asserted. MITRE maturity describes its source evidence, not a 1200km lab result.

For broader context—not technique-specific control mappings—see AI Security, AI Security Course, and detection-validation methodology.
