Summary: Generative AI (GenAI) models offer a broad range of capabilities, including question answering, content generation, code generation, and summarization. Organizations are increasingly looking to integrate fine-tuned GenAI models into their business processes to enhance performance or address specific tasks. Similarly, service providers aim to embed fine-tuned GenAI models into service workflows to improve customer experience or deliver new services. Fine-tuning a GenAI model involves adapting it to meet the unique requirements of particular business or service contexts, thereby ensuring optimized performance and target results. However, this process introduces a range of security challenges. These include harmful examples demonstration attacks identity shifting attacks, removal of RLHF protection attacks, model supply chain attacks, fine-tuned model skewing attacks, and bias amplification attacks. This Recommendation aims to provide security guidelines for fine-tuning GenAI models to address these security challenges and ensure the secure development and deployment of such of models. The main clauses of this Recommendation are as follows: Process of fine-tuning GenAI models Security threats to fine-tuning GenAI models Security requirements for fine-tuning GenAI models Security guidelines for fine-tuning GenAI models
