The cybersecurity risks introduced when organizations use third-party AI models, training datasets, and ML libraries in their products and operations. Risks include poisoned pre-trained models, backdoored ML frameworks, vulnerable AI dependencies, and compromised model marketplaces where attackers distribute trojaned models that behave normally except on specific trigger inputs.
Organizations increasingly download pre-trained models and AI components from public repositories, creating a new software supply chain attack surface. Security engineers must evaluate AI dependencies with the same rigor applied to code libraries. GRC analysts need to include AI supply chain risks in vendor assessments and procurement processes.
