The Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) has revealed five ways malicious actors can use ChatGPT to enhance their attack toolset in a new report exploring the cybersecurity implications of large language models (LLMs). The Security Implications of ChatGPT paper details how threat actors can exploit AI-driven systems in different aspects of cyberattacks including enumeration, foothold assistance, reconnaissance, phishing, and the generation of polymorphic code. By examining these topics, the CSA said it aims to raise awareness of the potential threats and emphasize the need for robust security measures and responsible AI development.
