9. [CyberSecEval](https://aibenchmarkindex.com/global/online/cyberseceval.md), Safety, Online: Evaluates cybersecurity risks from model-generated code and responses to requests that could enable cyberattacks.
10. [HarmBench](https://aibenchmarkindex.com/global/online/harmbench.md), Safety, Online: Evaluates automated red-teaming attacks and model refusal defenses across standardized harmful behaviors.
11. [InjecAgent](https://aibenchmarkindex.com/global/online/injecagent.md), Safety, Online: Evaluates whether tool-using agents follow indirect prompt injections embedded in external tool responses.
12. [JailbreakBench](https://aibenchmarkindex.com/global/online/jailbreakbench.md), Safety, Online: Compares jailbreak attacks and defenses on a standardized set of misuse behaviors and evaluation rules.
13. [RealToxicityPrompts](https://aibenchmarkindex.com/global/online/realtoxicityprompts.md), Safety, Online: Measures whether language models continue naturally occurring web prompts with toxic text.
14. [SafeBench](https://aibenchmarkindex.com/global/online/safebench.md), Safety, Online: Evaluates autonomous-driving agents in safety-critical simulated scenarios, including adversarially generated cases.
15. [SafetyBench](https://aibenchmarkindex.com/global/online/safetybench.md), Safety, Online: Evaluates large-language-model safety knowledge with Chinese and English multiple-choice questions across seven risk categories.
16. [SORRY-Bench](https://aibenchmarkindex.com/global/online/sorry-bench.md), Safety, Online: Measures the safety-refusal behavior of language models across a balanced taxonomy of unsafe requests and prompt mutations.
17. [StereoSet](https://aibenchmarkindex.com/global/online/stereoset.md), Safety, Online: Measures stereotypical bias and language-modeling ability in sentence-level and discourse-level contexts.
18. [StrongREJECT](https://aibenchmarkindex.com/global/online/strongreject.md), Safety, Online: Evaluates jailbreak responses with a forbidden-prompt dataset and an automated judge designed to penalize empty refusals and ineffective attacks.
19. [ToxiGen](https://aibenchmarkindex.com/global/online/toxigen.md), Safety, Online: Tests hate-speech classifiers on machine-generated implicit toxic and benign statements about 13 minority groups.
20. [WinoBias](https://aibenchmarkindex.com/global/online/winobias.md), Safety, Online: Measures gender bias in coreference resolution by changing pronoun gender while preserving sentence structure.
21. [XSTest](https://aibenchmarkindex.com/global/online/xstest.md), Safety, Online: Tests whether safety-tuned language models refuse harmless prompts that superficially resemble unsafe requests.
22. [Benchmark MCP Safety](https://aibenchmarkindex.com/global/online/benchmark-mcp-safety.md), Safety, Online: Tests resistance to malicious tool descriptions, tool shadowing, and excess privilege.
23. [Benchmark Sycophancy](https://aibenchmarkindex.com/global/online/benchmark-sycophancy.md), Safety, Online: Tests whether a model resists endorsing a user's increasingly harmful mistaken plan.
24. [Do-Not-Answer](https://aibenchmarkindex.com/global/online/do-not-answer.md), Safety, Online: Evaluates whether language models decline risky instructions while still answering harmless requests.
25. [Benchmark Honesty](https://aibenchmarkindex.com/global/online/benchmark-honesty.md), Safety, Online: Tests whether a model admits uncertainty after a required tool call fails.
