Abstract

A system and method for detecting a cybersecurity risk of an artificial intelligence (AI), is presented. The method includes: inspecting a computing environment for an AI model deployed therein; generating a representation of the AI model in a security database, the security database including a representation of the computing environment; inspecting the AI model for a cybersecurity risk; generating a representation of the cybersecurity risk in the security database, the representation of the cybersecurity risk connected to the representation of the AI model in response to detecting the cybersecurity risk; and initiating a mitigation action based on the cybersecurity risk.

Claims (53)

1. A method for detecting a cybersecurity risk of an artificial intelligence (AI), comprising:

generating an inspectable disk based on an original disk of a resource deployed in a computing environment;

inspecting the inspectable disk for an AI model;

generating a representation of the AI model in a security database, the security database including a representation of the computing environment;

inspecting the AI model for a cybersecurity risk;

generating a representation of the cybersecurity risk in the security database, the representation of the cybersecurity risk connected to the representation of the AI model in response to detecting the cybersecurity risk; and

initiating a mitigation action based on the cybersecurity risk.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

detecting an artifact of the AI model on the inspectable disk.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

inspecting the AI model to detect an AI model configured to execute a code object.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

detecting a metadata of the AI model, wherein the metadata indicates that the AI model is a cybersecurity risk.

5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

detecting in the AI model any one of: a secret, a certificate, a code, and any combination thereof.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

generating a lateral movement path, wherein the lateral movement path includes the AI model, and a representation of a resource, wherein the resource is accessible utilizing the AI model.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

applying a policy on the representation of the computing environment.

8. The method of claim 7 , further comprising:

initiating the mitigation action based on the policy.

9. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a set of instructions for detecting a cybersecurity risk of an artificial intelligence (AI), the set of instructions comprising:

one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a device, cause the device to:

generate an inspectable disk based on an original disk of a resource deployed in a computing environment;

inspect the inspectable disk for an AI model;

generate a representation of the AI model in a security database, the security database including a representation of the computing environment;

inspect the AI model for a cybersecurity risk;

generate a representation of the cybersecurity risk in the security database, the representation of the cybersecurity risk connected to the representation of the AI model in response to detecting the cybersecurity risk; and

initiate a mitigation action based on the cybersecurity risk.

10. A system for detecting a cybersecurity risk of an artificial intelligence (AI) comprising:

a processing circuitry;

a memory, the memory containing instructions that, when executed by the processing circuitry, configure the system to:

generate an inspectable disk based on an original disk of a resource deployed in a computing environment;

inspect the inspectable disk for an AI model;

generate a representation of the AI model in a security database, the security database including a representation of the computing environment;

inspect the AI model for a cybersecurity risk;

generate a representation of the cybersecurity risk in the security database, the representation of the cybersecurity risk connected to the representation of the AI model in response to detecting the cybersecurity risk; and

initiate a mitigation action based on the cybersecurity risk.

11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the memory contains further instructions which when executed by the processing circuitry further configure the system to:

detect an artifact of the AI model on the inspectable disk.

12. The system of claim 10 , wherein the memory contains further instructions which when executed by the processing circuitry further configure the system to:

inspect the AI model to detect an AI model configured to execute a code object.

13. The system of claim 10 , wherein the memory contains further instructions which when executed by the processing circuitry further configure the system to:

detect a metadata of the AI model, wherein the metadata indicates that the AI model is a cybersecurity risk.

14. The system of claim 10 , wherein the memory contains further instructions which when executed by the processing circuitry further configure the system to:

detect in the AI model any one of:

a secret, a certificate, a code, and any combination thereof.

15. The system of claim 10 , wherein the memory contains further instructions which when executed by the processing circuitry further configure the system to:

generate a lateral movement path, wherein the lateral movement path includes the AI model, and a representation of a resource, wherein the resource is accessible utilizing the AI model.

16. The system of claim 10 , wherein the memory contains further instructions which when executed by the processing circuitry further configure the system to:

apply a policy on the representation of the computing environment.

17. The system of claim 16 , wherein the memory contains further instructions which when executed by the processing circuitry further configure the system to:

initiate the mitigation action based on the policy.
