Control activities

Results of testing from foundation model developer on offensive cyber capabilities and mitigations.

Attestation the mitigations have not been removed.

Implementing malicious use detection and blocking. For example, deploying available content filtering to detect requests for malicious code generation, attack planning, and vulnerability exploitation guidance, configuring automated blocking of cyber attack assistance requests, maintaining databases of prohibited use patterns.

Establishing usage monitoring and threat intelligence. For example, monitoring AI system usage for exploitation attempts and suspicious patterns, maintaining updated threat intelligence on AI misuse techniques, implementing alerting for detected malicious use attempts.

Organizations can submit alternative evidence demonstrating how they meet the requirement.
