LLM Security for Enterprises: Risks and Best Practices

Wiz Experts Team

LLM models, like GPT and other foundation models, come with significant risks if not properly secured. From prompt injection attacks to training data poisoning, the potential vulnerabilities are manifold and far-reaching.

Data Leakage: Risks, Causes, & Prevention

Data leakage is the unchecked exfiltration of organizational data to a third party. It occurs through various means such as misconfigured databases, poorly protected network servers, phishing attacks, or even careless data handling.

AI Risk Management: Essential AI SecOps Guide

AI risk management is a set of tools and practices for assessing and securing artificial intelligence environments. Because of the non-deterministic, fast-evolving, and deep-tech nature of AI, effective AI risk management and SecOps requires more than just reactive measures.

The Threat of Adversarial AI

Wiz Experts Team

Adversarial artificial intelligence (AI), or adversarial machine learning (ML), is a type of cyberattack where threat actors corrupt AI systems to manipulate their outputs and functionality.

What is LLM Jacking?

LLM jacking is an attack technique that cybercriminals use to manipulate and exploit an enterprise’s cloud-based LLMs (large language models).

What is a Prompt Injection Attack?

Prompt injection attacks are an AI security threat where an attacker manipulates the input prompt in natural language processing (NLP) systems to influence the system’s output.

What is a Data Poisoning Attack?

Wiz Experts Team

Data poisoning is a kind of cyberattack that targets the training data used to build artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) models.
