Cybersecurity Experts Warn of New 'LLMjacking' Threat
Cybersecurity experts have raised alarm about a new threat called 'LLMjacking'. Hackers are exploiting large language models (LLMs) from companies like OpenAI and Anthropic to generate images, bypass national news, and abuse services without authorization. CISOs and security teams must now proactively secure their attack surface to mitigate this risk and others.
BreachLock, a leading cybersecurity firm, has identified seven new ways external assets are at risk. These include supply chain and AI-driven attacks, API and serverless exploits, and dark web credential resale. To address these threats, CISOs and their teams prefer strategies based on Zero Trust principles. This involves modernizing security programs to include comprehensive initiatives covering roles, metrics, and maturity models. Enhanced threat detection, such as network traffic analysis and User Behavior Analysis, along with integrating managed security services like Managed SASE and active vulnerability management, are crucial to handle these seven new external risks effectively.
LLMjacking poses a significant threat to enterprises. Proactive external attack surface management (EASM) is now an integral part of any security strategy. By adopting Zero Trust principles and modernizing security programs, CISOs can better protect their organizations from these emerging threats.
