Software leaders who are building applications based on Large Language Models (LLMs) often find it a challenge to achieve reliability. It’s no surprise given the non-deterministic nature of LLMs. To effectively create reliable LLM-based (often with RAG) applications, extensive testing and evaluation processes are crucial. This often ends up involving meticulous adjustments to prompts.

Key Takeaways from this Report. 2021 was another record year for global DDoS attacks. At 9.84 million, the number was lower than the 10.1 million attacks in 2020 but still represented a 14 percent increase over the 2019 numbers. A few factors account for the slight decrease in global attacks from 2020 to 2021. First, 2020 was a full lockdown year where the world operated remotely, giving threat actors a unique landscape against which to launch unprecedented numbers of DDoS attacks.
