Best LLM Security Tools of 2024: Safeguarding Your Large Language Models

As large language models (LLMs) continue to push the boundaries of natural language processing, their widespread adoption across various industries has highlighted the critical need for robust security measures. These powerful AI systems, while immensely beneficial, are not immune to potential risks and vulnerabilities. In 2024, the landscape of LLM security tools has evolved to address the unique challenges posed by these advanced models, ensuring their safe and responsible deployment.

The Hidden Economy of Open Source Software

The recent discovery of a backdoor in XZ Utils (CVE-2024-3094), a data compression utility used by a wide array of various open-source, Linux-based computer applications, underscores the importance of open-source software security. While it is often not consumer-facing, open-source software is a critical component of computing and internet functions, such as secure communications between machines.

Understanding APIs and How Attackers Abuse Them to Steal Data

Simply put, APIs (short for application programming interface) are how machines, cloud workloads, automation and other non-human entities communicate with one another. They also represent an access point to highly sensitive company data and services. Almost every organization uses these machine interfaces, and their usage is only growing because they are essential to digital transformation and automation initiatives.

Control Web Panel - Fingerprinting Open-Source Software using a Consolidation Algorithm approach

At Bitsight, part of the core work of the Vulnerability Research team is to analyze new high-profile vulnerabilities and ensure we come up with ways to detect, at an internet-wide scale, who is affected by these. Sometimes - more often than not - the direct exploitation of these vulnerabilities is significantly intrusive, and thus we can not load a direct port of the publicly available Proofs-of-Concept onto our internet scanning infrastructure.

Securing APIs through penetration testing

APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) have become the backbone of many modern applications, and indeed the foundation of some businesses services. APIs enable seamless communication between applications, services and systems, allowing organisations to innovate, collaborate and deliver value to their customers. However, as reliance on APIs grows, so does the need for robust security measures to protect these critical digital assets from potential threats.
