Welcome to our cheat sheet covering the OWASP Top 10 for LLMs. If you haven’t heard of the OWASP Top 10 before, it’s probably most well known for its web application security edition. The OWASP Top 10 is a widely recognized and influential document published by OWASP focused on improving the security of software and web applications. OWASP has created other top 10 lists (Snyk has some too, as well as a hands-on learning path), most notably for web applications.
AI is one of the hottest topics in tech right now. More than half of consumers have already tried generative AI tools like ChatGPT or DALL-E. According to a Gartner poll, 70% of executives say their business is investigating and exploring how they can use generative AI, while 19% are in pilot or production mode. Business use cases for AI range from enhancing the customer experience (38%), revenue growth (26%), and cost optimization (17%).

Data continues to explode in volume, variety, and velocity, and security teams at organizations of all sizes are challenged to keep up. Businesses face escalating risks posed by varied SaaS environments, the emergence of generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools, and the exposure and theft of valuable source code continues to keep CISOs and Data Officers up at night.
Internet of Things (IoT) security protects IoT devices and the networks to which they connect from cyberattacks. IoT devices can include anything that connects to your internet including doorbell cameras, baby monitors, smart bulbs and thermostats. This presents a cybersecurity risk because anything that can connect to your internet is at risk of being hacked.
Just last week the UK’s NCSC issued a warning, stating that it sees alarming potential for so-called prompt injection attacks, driven by the large language models that power AI. The NSCS stated “Amongst the understandable excitement around LLMs, the global tech community still doesn‘t yet fully understand LLM’s capabilities, weaknesses, and (crucially) vulnerabilities.
