In this chapter, we present a structured mapping of AI security threats from the OWASP Top 10 LLM Risks (2025) and the OWASP AI Exchange Threats onto a modular AI system architecture, grounded in Googles Secure AI Framework (SAIF).
By examining the AI architecture across its four core layers, data, infrastructure, model, and application, we can visually pinpoint where threats are most likely to materialize as risk exposure, thereby enabling focused and effective security testing. Figure 2.1, titled OWASP AI Threats Mapped to AI Components, illustrates this alignment and serves as a reference for mapping threats to the specific components within the AI system.![][image1]
