Description

Adversaries may exfiltrate AI artifacts to steal intellectual property and cause economic harm to the victim organization. Proprietary training data is costly to collect and annotate and may be a target for Exfiltration and theft. AIaaS providers charge for use of their API. An adversary who has stolen a model via Exfiltration or via Extract AI Model now has unlimited use of that service without paying the owner of the intellectual property.
