AlcaTRAz is a prompt‑level defense that uses rule trees to insert controlled character‑level perturbations into input text, disrupting jailbreak attacks without modifying or retraining the target LLM. It operates solely on the input, making it suitable for black‑box deployments, and was evaluated on 33 open‑weight models and 22 jailbreak types, outperforming three baseline defenses in 73.4 % of model‑attack combinations. While it significantly reduces high‑severity jailbreak success, it does not eliminate it and is intended as one layer of a broader defense strategy.

The paper investigates how allocating a query budget to structural depth rather than surface variation improves jailbreak success against the SAGE self‑check defense. By using a best‑of‑N approach over a code‑completion encoding, the authors achieve 67%, 22%, and 15% success rates on three open‑weight targets—far exceeding the 4.7% and 3.0% rates of single‑draw encoding and character‑search methods. The study demonstrates that depth of encoding and breadth of variation independently undermine transform and gate defenses, and that repeated sampling can inflate perceived robustness.
