NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From Linda Howard comes a thrilling and sensual new novel of romance, suspense, intrigue . . . and memories that can kill. Lizette Henry wakes up one morning and makes a terrifying discovery: She doesn't recognize the face she sees in the mirror. She remembers what she looks like, but her reflection is someone else's. To add to the shock, two years seem to have disappeared from her life. Someone has gone to great and inexplicable lengths to keep those missing years hidden forever. But the past always finds a way to return. Strange memories soon begin to surface and, along with them, some unusual skills and talents that Lizette hasn't a clue about acquiring. Sensing that she's being monitored, Lizette suddenly knows how to search for bugs in her house and tracking devices in her car. What's more, she can elude surveillance-like a trained agent. Enter a mysterious and seductive stranger named Xavier, who claims he wants to help-but who triggers disturbing images of an unspeakable crime of which Lizette may or may not be the perpetrator. With memories returning, she suddenly becomes a target of anonymous assassins. On the run with nowhere to hide, Lizette has no choice but to rely on Xavier, a strong and magnetic man she doesn't trust, with a powerful attraction she cannot resist. As murky waters become clear, Lizette confronts a conspiracy that is treacherous and far-reaching and a truth that, once revealed, may silence her and Xavier once and for all.

In an era of rapidly evolving Artificial Intelligence/Large Language Model (AI/LLM) technologies, cybersecurity practitioners face significant challenges in monitoring unauthorized AI solutions, detecting AI vulnerabilities, and identifying unexpected AI/LLM development. Tenable Security Center leverages advanced detection technologies - agents, passive network monitoring, dynamic application security testing, and distributed scan engines - to surface AI/LLM software, libraries, and browser plugins. The risk managers utilize this report to begin a comprehensive review of the AI/LLM packages in systems and web applications, along with associated vulnerabilities, mitigating risks of exploitation, data leakage, and unauthorized resource consumption.

AI/LLM technologies are promising and can transform many industries and businesses, offering new innovation and efficiency opportunities. However, the technology represents a huge security challenge at many layers and this impact should not be overlooked. By using Tenable Security Center and Tenable Web App Scanning the organization is able to take a security-first approach. When combined with best practices and robust governance policies, the organizations can harness the power of AI/LLM and mitigate the associated emerging threats.  

This report provides a detailed view of AI/LLM use by leveraging Nessus plugin (196906) to detect AI/LLM usage in 3 ways: browser extensions, applications, and file paths all common to AI/LLM implementations. AI/LLM vulnerabilities discovered in web applications are identified using the Web Application Scanner, alongside network traffic analysis using the Nessus Network Monitor (NNM). By combining all methods of data collection, the risk managers are able to identify problem areas and other risks associated with AI/LLM.
