Practical Solutions for LLM Cybersecurity Risks
Overview
Large language models (LLMs) pose cybersecurity risks due to their capabilities in code generation and automated execution. Robust evaluation mechanisms are essential to address these risks.
Existing Evaluation Frameworks
Several benchmark frameworks and position papers such as CyberMetric, SecQA, WMDP-Cyber, and CyberBench offer multiple-choice formats for assessing LLM security properties. Rainbow Teaming and CYBERSECEVAL 1 present innovative approaches to generate adversarial prompts for cyberattack tests.
Introducing CYBERSECEVAL 2
CYBERSECEVAL 2 is a benchmark for assessing LLM security risks and capabilities, facilitating prompt injection and code interpreter abuse testing. It also introduces the safety-utility tradeoff quantified by the False Refusal Rate (FRR), highlighting LLMs’ ability to handle different types of requests while maintaining security.
Comprehensive Evaluation
CYBERSECEVAL 2 categorizes prompt injection assessment tests and vulnerability exploitation tests, ensuring thorough evaluation of LLM security across multiple domains. The tests revealed insights into LLM compliance with cybersecurity tasks and identified the need for enhanced security measures.
Research Contributions
The research introduced robust prompt injection tests, evaluations of LLM compliance with instructions, and assessment suites measuring LLM capabilities in creating exploits. A dataset evaluating LLM FRR in cybersecurity tasks was also included.
Implications and Recommendations
The research indicates the persistence of prompt injection vulnerabilities in LLMs and the need for enhanced guardrails. It also emphasizes the importance of quantifying the safety-utility tradeoff and the need for further research in exploit generation tasks.
