# DASF-R-9.10 — Accidental exposure of unauthorized data to models

Source: [official compendium, AI Lifecycle Risks, row 47](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1lD5nKC1QNoUTDXdMp31NA9eKcUYGjhtC34MCfQpqpGo/edit#gid=307775890&range=A47:AE47). Snapshot: 2026-10-22; source revision: DASF v 1.0.

## Risk mechanism

In GenAI, large language models (LLMs)
are also becoming an integral part of the infrastructure and software applications. LLMs are being used to create more powerful online search, help software developers write
code, and even power chatbots that help with customer service. LLMs are being integrated with corporate databases and documents to enable powerful retrieval augmented generation (RAG) scenarios when LLMs are adapted to specific domains and use cases. For example: rows from a database or text from a PDF document that are intended to be summarized generically by the LLM. These scenarios in effect expose a new attack surface to potentially confidential and proprietary enterprise data that is not sufficiently secured or overprivileged, which can lead to use of unauthorized data as an input source to models. A similar risk exists for tabular data models that rely upon lookups to feature store tables at inference time.

## Applicability

[Predictive ML Models](https://mathborgess.github.io/ai-security-wiki/wiki/deployments/predictive-ml.md) · [RAG - LLMs](https://mathborgess.github.io/ai-security-wiki/wiki/deployments/rag.md) · [Fine-tuned LLMs](https://mathborgess.github.io/ai-security-wiki/wiki/deployments/fine-tuned-llm.md) · [Pre-trained LLMs](https://mathborgess.github.io/ai-security-wiki/wiki/deployments/pre-trained-llm.md)

Blank source cells remain null (unspecified); a source “No” means this default filter omits the risk; it does not establish absence in your architecture. Combine every deployment pattern in the system.

## Impacts described by the source

**AI system:**

• Unauthorised use of Model Input Data

**Business:**

• Incident Response Costs
• Legal Fines
• Customer Retention

## Controls

- [DASF-1](https://mathborgess.github.io/ai-security-wiki/wiki/controls/1.md) — SSO with IdP and MFA
- [DASF-2](https://mathborgess.github.io/ai-security-wiki/wiki/controls/2.md) — Sync users and groups
- [DASF-3](https://mathborgess.github.io/ai-security-wiki/wiki/controls/3.md) — Restrict access using IP access lists
- [DASF-4](https://mathborgess.github.io/ai-security-wiki/wiki/controls/4.md) — Restrict access using private link
- [DASF-5](https://mathborgess.github.io/ai-security-wiki/wiki/controls/5.md) — Control access to data and other objects
- [DASF-16](https://mathborgess.github.io/ai-security-wiki/wiki/controls/16.md) — Secure model features
- [DASF-46](https://mathborgess.github.io/ai-security-wiki/wiki/controls/46.md) — Store and retrieve embeddings securely
- [DASF-55](https://mathborgess.github.io/ai-security-wiki/wiki/controls/55.md) — Monitor audit logs
- [DASF-58](https://mathborgess.github.io/ai-security-wiki/wiki/controls/58.md) — Protect data with filters and masking
- [DASF-57](https://mathborgess.github.io/ai-security-wiki/wiki/controls/57.md) — Use attribute-based access controls (ABAC)
- [DASF-59](https://mathborgess.github.io/ai-security-wiki/wiki/controls/59.md) — Use clean rooms
- [DASF-67](https://mathborgess.github.io/ai-security-wiki/wiki/controls/67.md) — Federate authentication

## Source control guidance

• DASF 1: SSO with IdP and MFA to limit who can access your data and AI platform
• DASF 2: Sync users and groups to inherit your organizational roles to access data
• DASF 3: Restrict access using IP access lists that can authenticate to your data and AI platform
• DASF 4: Restrict access using private link as strong controls that limit the source for inbound requests
• DASF 5: Control access to data and other objects for permissions model across all data assets to protect data and sources that are used for RAG
• DASF 16: Secure model features to reduce the risk of malicious actors manipulating the features that feed into ML training
• DASF 46: Store and retrieve embeddings securely to integrate data objects for security-sensitive data that goes into LLMs as RAG inputs
• DASF 55: Monitor audit logs
• DASF 58: Protect data with filters and masking
• DASF 57: Use attribute-based access controls (ABAC)
• DASF 59: Use clean rooms to collaborate in a secure environment
• DASF 67: Federate authentication

## Investigate and verify

Project adaptation: use the [evidence workflow](https://mathborgess.github.io/ai-security-wiki/wiki/methodology.md), then request **investigate_risk** with **DASF-R-9.10**. It returns the mechanism above, control-specific evidence requests, proposed tests and remediation acceptance criteria. Until evidence is supplied, the result is **unverified**. Use [the finding template](https://mathborgess.github.io/ai-security-wiki/wiki/templates/finding.md) to record a concrete observation and residual risk.
