LLM Security Threats Evolve Beyond Traditional Defenses

The rapid integration of Large Language Models (LLMs) into various industries has introduced a new set of security challenges that traditional methods struggle to address. Key vulnerabilities include prompt injection, where attackers manipulate LLMs through crafted prompts, and data poisoning, where malicious data is introduced during training to corrupt outputs. Additionally, attackers may attempt model extraction and theft, or use adversarial attacks with subtle input perturbations to cause misclassifications. Secure output handling is also critical, as LLM-generated content can lead to downstream vulnerabilities if not properly sanitized. AI
