OWASP: AI's top threat and how to protect your LLMs

AI advancements continue, but the issue of prompt injection remains persistent. OWASP identified it as the top threat to #LLMs, and current solutions are inadequate to combat it. Check out our latest blog that discusses why this #security challenge is so difficult and offers strategies to safeguard your organization: https://okt.to/eYvT57

AI is advancing constantly, yet one issue persists: prompt injection. OWASP has labeled it the top risk for #LLMs, and current safeguards still fall short. Check out our latest blog to understand why this remains a significant #security concern and discover actionable steps to safeguard your organization: https://okt.to/m1u0J2

The evolution of AI advancing is producing some great benefits, but prompt injection remains a serious threat, ranked by OWASP as the top risk to #LLMs. Check out our blog for essential #security strategies to protect your organization: https://okt.to/YUAGDm

In today’s digital battleground, the rise of AI-powered agents is transforming how we secure our systems—and challenging many of our core defenses. #techradarMeanwhile, Tom’s Hardware signals we’re entering an "AI hacking era," where both attackers and defenders are leveraging AI-powered tools for faster, smarter cyber operations. #TOMShardwareFood for Thought:Is your security model ready for AI behaviors, not just human ones?Should we shift from static rules to intent‑based detection, using behavioral signals as the foundation for trust? As AI evolves, are your systems learning faster than your adversaries—or are we already behind?In an AI-first era, our defenses must be as adaptive as the threats we face. Let's explore how to build intent-aware platforms that stay one step ahead.What behaviors or capabilities would you prioritize when defending in this AI-powered landscape?

AI Security Incident Report: PromptLock, the first credible AI‑powered ransomware prototype. In summary, a new malware designed to connect to a remote AI and generate attacks on the fly. Written in Golang, it uses the Ollama API to access an OpenAI GPT-OSS:20b model. The LLM is hosted on a remote server, to which the threat actor connects through a proxy tunnel. Discovered by ESET, the malware uses hard-coded prompts that instruct the model to generate malicious Lua scripts dynamically, for local filesystem enumeration, target files inspection, data exfiltration, and file encryption. (Source and all the details posted in the comments) It’s still a VirusTotal PoC, but the technique is here and confirms that TestSavantAI's unique adaptive and autonomous approach to mitigate such threats was table stakes from the get-go. Our workflow to mitigate: We test the pattern in our adversarial Arena (a non‑destructive harness) We harden and auto-deploy runtime guardrails that refuse high risk code gen. We filter for and block all unsanctioned LLM calls, and throttle file‑write bursts. If you manage AI adoption, your attack surface has grown and now includes model endpoints and prompts. #AIsecurity #LLMSecurity #Ransomware #GenAI #TestSavantAI
