The idea that people are the weakest link has been a constant topic of discussion in cybersecurity conversations for years, and this may have been the case when looking at the attack landscape of the past. But we live in a new world where artificial intelligence (AI), large language models (LLMs) and deep fake technology are changing every day.

In AI and machine learning, providing accurate and timely information is crucial. However, equally important is an AI model’s ability to recognize when it doesn’t have enough information to answer a query and to gracefully decline to respond. This capability is a critical factor in maintaining the reliability and trustworthiness of the entire system.

Every organization faces data security threats, which become more complex when integrating technologies like cloud computing or hybrid working options.
