Securing large language models (LLMs) presents unique challenges due to their complexity, scale, and data interactions. Before we dive into securing them, let’s touch on the basics.
Securing LLMs is critical as they are trained on massive datasets that contain sensitive information. Protecting LLMs from unauthorized access or misuse is vital.
The Thales Solution for LLM SecurityCipherTrust Transparent Encryption (CTE), is part of the CipherTrust Data Security Platform (CDSP) which delivers data-at-rest encryption with centralized key management, privileged user access control and detailed data access audit logging. Protecting data wherever it resides, on-premises, across multiple clouds and within big data, and Kubernetes environments. The deployment is simple, scalable, and fast, with agents installed at operating, filesystem or device layer, and encryption and decryption are transparent to all applications that run above it. CipherTrust Transparent Encryption is designed to meet data security compliance and best practice requirements with minimal disruption, effort, and cost. Implementation is seamless keeping both business and operational processes working without changes even during deployment and roll out. The solution works in conjunction with the FIPS 140-2 up to Level 3 compliant CipherTrust Manager, which centralizes encryption key and policy management for CDSP.
Benefits of CipherTrust Transparent EncryptionSimplified Management: CipherTrust Manager provides a unified management console that enables you to discover and classify sensitive data and protect data using integrated Thales Data Protection Connectors across on-premises data stores and multi-cloud deployments. It offers advanced self-service licensing for improved visibility and control of licenses.
Cloud-friendly Deployment: CipherTrust Manager offers users additional hosting options, and can run as a native virtual machine on AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, VMware, Microsoft HyperV and more. Additionally, native support for CipherTrust Cloud Key Management is available on CipherTrust Manager to streamline key management across multiple cloud infrastructures and SaaS applications.
Flexible Form Factors:CipherTrust Manager is available in both virtual and physical form factors. Flexible deployment options can easily scale to provide key management at remote facilities or in cloud infrastructures. CipherTrust Manager supports managing keys in the FIPS 140 L3 boundary of Luna Network HSM.

A new report by the former SafeBreach researcher Alon Leviev is raising alarms about the risks posed by downgrade attacks on Microsoft Windows. In a blog post, Leviev, who now works for Microsoft, explained that his latest bypass could allow a malicious actor to load unsigned kernel drivers on a fully patched Windows system. Those could then be used to disable security features, deploy and disguise malicious code and processes, and so on.
