Hallucination Risk
Hallucination Risk is the risk that a generative AI system produces plausible-sounding but factually wrong or unsupported content.
Why it matters
In security review, a hallucinated control or certification claim can mislead a customer and create compliance or contractual exposure if it ships unreviewed.
Where it appears in the workflow
A concern whenever AI drafts questionnaire answers or trust-center content that humans then review before release.
Common mistakes
- Treating hallucination risk as a universal term with no workflow context.
