[mai mult...]Large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT, Claude, and development tools such as Cursor have quickly become part of many engineering and security workflows. Yet many security professionals still struggle to get meaningful results from them. The problem is rarely the tool itself. It is usually how the tool is being used.
Many people interact with LLMs the same way they use search engines: short queries, minimal context, and the expectation of a quick answer. That approach works poorly for complex security work. Security analysis depends on context, constraints, systems thinking, and domain knowledge. Without those elements, the model will default to generic answers.
Used properly, however, LLMs can accelerate research, system design, documentation, threat analysis, and engineering tasks. The following techniques outline practical ways security analysts, threat hunters, SOC analysts, and security engineers can structure their prompts to get much higher-quality output.
