AI Chatbot Defenses Escalate As Hacks Target Business Bots
-
AI is being used by both cybersecurity defenses and attacks, contributing to an escalating arms race between good and bad actors.
-
There's a new class of AI targets - business chatbots - that need specialized protections against adversarial attacks, indirect prompt injection, data poisoning, and DDoS.
-
Cloudflare has announced a new firewall to protect AI chatbots by intercepting queries and responses, detecting sensitive data, and managing model abuses.
-
The firewall can mitigate attacks through sensitive data rules, rate limiting, and filtering malicious queries.
-
While some protections are available now, key features to validate prompts and prevent model exploits are still in development.
