This paper studies the integration off Large Language Models into
cybersecurity tools and protocols. The main issue discussed in this paper is
how traditional rule-based and signature based security systems are not enough
to deal with modern AI powered cyber threats. Cybersecurity industry is
changing as threats are becoming more dangerous and adaptive in nature by
levering the features provided by AI tools. By integrating LLMs into these
tools and protocols, make the systems scalable, context-aware and intelligent.
Thus helping it to mitigate these evolving cyber threats. The paper studies the
architecture and functioning of LLMs, its integration into Encrypted prompts to
prevent prompt injection attacks. It also studies the integration of LLMs into
cybersecurity tools using a four layered architecture. At last, the paper has
tried to explain various ways of integration LLMs into traditional Intrusion
Detection System and enhancing its original abilities in various dimensions.
The key findings of this paper has been (i)Encrypted Prompt with LLM is an
effective way to mitigate prompt injection attacks, (ii) LLM enhanced cyber
security tools are more accurate, scalable and adaptable to new threats as
compared to traditional models, (iii) The decoupled model approach for LLM
integration into IDS is the best way as it is the most accurate way.
