Generative AI has transformed the way enterprises build, interact, and automate. But as adoption of large language models (LLMs) accelerates, so do the risks. From model manipulation to shadow usage, these systems introduce new and evolving threat vectors, many of which traditional security stacks fail to detect or mitigate effectively.

At Typing AI Biometrics, we combine behavioral biometrics with advanced AI security tooling to help organizations secure every layer of generative AI. Below, we outline the top 10 risks facing LLM-powered apps in 2025 and how to reduce exposure while maintaining innovation velocity.

1. Prompt Injection

Risk: Attackers craft inputs designed to manipulate model behavior, override safety constraints, or leak context data. These inputs may come from users or third-party systems.

Mitigation: Apply input validation and structure prompts using strict system/user separation. Monitor for anomalous patterns using behavioral AI. Deploy guardrails to detect and neutralize prompt manipulation before it reaches the model.

2. Data leakage through outputs

Risk: LLMs may expose internal data, personally identifiable information (PII), or confidential content unintentionally through completions.

Mitigation: Implement output filtering and redaction. Use behavioral identity signals to limit access to context-sensitive operations. Enforce context lifespan policies and log access trails.

3. Hallucinations

Risk: LLMs often generate plausible but false information, leading to poor decisions or compliance breaches when outputs are trusted too readily.

Mitigation: Integrate retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) with curated knowledge bases. Flag uncertain or unverifiable responses. Include human-in-the-loop (HITL) where business-critical accuracy is needed.

Introduction

Data Activity Monitoring (DAM) is a crucial component of modern data security and compliance strategies. It serves as a sentinel for organizations, safeguarding sensitive information against unauthorized access, breaches, or misuse.

What is Data Activity Monitoring?

Data Activity Monitoring (DAM) is a proactive cybersecurity approach designed to track, monitor, and analyze the actions performed on an organization's data assets. By recording and analyzing data-related activities, DAM solutions provide real-time insights into potential threats and anomalies, giving security teams a chance to respond swiftly and prevent data breaches.

When moving to 2023, cyber security and threat detection will remain at the top of businesses. Data breaches have been a major concern for all small and large businesses.

According to a report by IBM, the average data breach cost reached $4.35 billion in 2022. Data breaches have increased by 2.6% than the previous year.

Due to this, the emphasis on cyber-physical systems, data privacy laws, and ransomware attacks has increased tremendously. These audits have become the top priority of risk and security leaders.

Traditionally we used Web Application Firewalls to protect the web apps. However, WAAP is the newer protection method that web apps are currently using that comes as an evolution of cloud web app firewall services.

What is WAAP?

Web apps are programs available online, and any user can access them via the internet from any part of the world. Web apps have several features, some of which are integrated using APIs. WAAP safeguards the web apps and the APIs used in those apps together.

WAAP comes as a service that provides auto-scaling security modules to your infrastructure and protects against several attacks. When getting WAAP services, users can also get additional services to enhance experience and performance.

With the increasing number of digital threats, it has become necessary for search engines to determine the difference between legit websites and those that are not legit. The websites that are not legit can contain viruses and malware, but it is not efficient that search engines to list all the websites that are found to have issues. It is where domain blacklisting comes in, and here, we will discuss everything you need to know about it.

What are Domain Blacklists, and how do they work?

A domain blacklist is a real-time database used by search engines to identify websites with malicious content. These websites are identified by their ISPs, and they are used as references to check if an email incoming from them is trustable or not using the email servers.

As a domain is found unsafe, it is moved to spam, and domain blacklisting is the same for websites over the internet. The main way of working is to find a trace of negative behavior; as soon as something negative is found, that domain is blacklisted.

The trend of cyberattacks has grown a lot in the past few years, and with the increasing need for online systems, it may increase even more in coming years. So, every company must secure its systems against such attacks, and penetration testing is an effective option.

Penetration testing (Pen-testing) tests your system by emulating cyber-attacks on the system, network and applications. Thus, you can see the vulnerabilities of your system. It can be automated or manual, but in either case, it shows the vulnerabilities of your IT infrastructure.

Why is Penetration Testing Important in Cyber Security?

With cyberattacks becoming more frequent, a cost-effective solution is required, and penetration testing makes a great option. Here are some reasons why it is important today..

OTP stands for the one-time password or one-time passcode and is a form of multi factor authentication (MFA). Almost every website or application now supports the functionality of the OTP due to rising security concerns. When you create a new account on a website or an application, or even if you are an existing user of any particular app, you can enable the OTP to protect the misuse of your data and identity theft.

Once enabled, the system then asks you to put in your email address or mobile phone, over which it sends a code each time you enter your login credentials. You then must enter that code alongside your credentials to successfully log into your account. If the OTP you received does not match the entered OTP, the system will give you an error, and you will not be able to log in successfully.

The modern-day web apps depend on a shorter delivery time with fewer cost expectations. Thus, API usage has been highly boosted in the past few years. While there are obvious cost, time, and effort-related benefits for the developers, there are some security concerns.

The Open Web Application Security Project® (OWASP) is a nonprofit foundation that works to improve the security of software. Through community-led open-source software projects, hundreds of local chapters worldwide, tens of thousands of members, and leading educational and training conferences, the OWASP Foundation is the source for developers and technologists to secure the web.

Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) is a security feature that requires two different factors to access your account. This includes something you know (a password), and something you have (your phone). 2FA is used to protect sensitive data like bank accounts, credit cards, social media accounts, etc.

2-factor Authentication (2FA)

2FA is a security measure that requires two different factors to complete an action. This is done to prevent unauthorized access to your account. In order to log into your account, you need to provide both something you know (your password), and something you have (a physical device).
