The term LLMjacking refers to attackers using stolen cloud credentials to gain unauthorized access to cloud-based large language models (LLMs), such as OpenAI’s GPT or Anthropic Claude. This blog shows how to strengthen LLMs with Sysdig. The attack works by criminals exploiting stolen credentials or cloud misconfigurations to gain access to expensive artificial intelligence (AI) models in the cloud. Once they gain access, they can run costly AI models at the victim’s expense.

Every time your customers make an online payment, they trust that their sensitive data won’t end up in the wrong hands. But what if it did?

For an enterprise business, the holidays can be a mixed bag. On the one hand, depending on your industry, you’re either winding down or doing the most business you’ll do all year. On the other, you’re especially vulnerable to holiday hacking attempts. Your customer data makes your organization an attractive target at a time when employee vacation time and office closures mean you have fewer employees to guard against holiday hackers.

The holidays are a hectic time. It’s often the busiest sales period of the year, generating the lion’s share of revenue for many organizations. At the same time, employees are wrapping up their big projects before the office closes for the winter break. Meanwhile, everyone’s trying to work around increasingly packed schedules while caring for their personal and family needs.

In the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity, the use of open-source red teaming tools has become indispensable. These tools not only raise awareness about potential vulnerabilities but also encourage security teams to think like attackers so they can begin the process of protecting their organizations against them. By simulating real-world attack scenarios, organizations can better understand their security posture and proactively address weaknesses.

The Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (SWIFT) provides secure and reliable communication networks for over 11500 connected financial institutions to facilitate cross-border payments and securities transactions.
