Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability. It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.

All of these attacks have similarities in terms of attack strategies, and a shift in focus to operational business disruption vs. data theft as the goal or leverage for monetizing the attack. First, the Mirai botnet, in late 2016, affected internet access for some hundreds of thousands of systems.
