How does an LLM work?

LLMs work by predicting the most likely words and sentences based on context. This enables them to answer questions, summarize information, translate languages, and generate content.

How are LLMs used in practice?

In practice, LLMs are used in both internal and external systems to improve efficiency in information processing, customer interaction, developer support, and decision-making.

What security risks are associated with LLMs?

LLMs introduce risks related to data leakage, misinformation, and unintended exposure of sensitive information if access control, logging, and governance are not properly implemented.

Sicra helps organizations assess and secure the use of LLMs through risk assessments, access management, logging, and monitoring—across internal systems, cloud platforms, and third-party services.

LLM (Large Language Model)

What is LLM?

A LLM (Large Language Model) is a type of artificial intelligence trained on vast amounts of text to understand, analyze, and generate natural language. LLMs are used in applications such as chatbots, code assistants, search, and automated analysis.

The models work by predicting likely words and sentences based on context, allowing them to answer questions, summarize information, translate languages, and generate content.

An LLM can be compared to a digital encyclopedia combined with a conversational partner: it has broad knowledge and can express responses in a human-like way.

Sicra and LLMs

LLMs offer significant efficiency gains but also introduce risks related to data leakage, misinformation, and unintended exposure of sensitive information.

Sicra helps organizations evaluate the secure use of LLMs through risk assessments, access control, logging, and monitoring. This includes advisory services for deploying LLMs in internal systems, cloud environments, and third-party services.
