Combating LLM Hallucinations with Knowledge Graphs

Combating LLM Hallucinations with Knowledge Graphs

A cybersecurity case study showing 80% reduction in false information

LinkQ demonstrates how knowledge graphs can effectively ground LLMs in factual information for high-stakes security applications.

  • Developed and tested an open-source natural language interface that forces LLMs to query knowledge graphs for ground-truth data
  • Achieved significant reduction in hallucinations compared to traditional LLM approaches
  • Implemented in real-world cybersecurity environments where accuracy is critical
  • Provides a practical blueprint for trustworthy AI in sensitive operational contexts

Why it matters: In cybersecurity operations, LLM hallucinations can lead to dangerous misinformation and flawed decision-making. This research offers a validated approach to mitigate these risks while preserving the benefits of natural language interfaces.
