Attackers turn to AI for help identifying files worth stealing
Gambit Security researchers documented three separate threat actor groups using AI tools across multiple attack stages, including code generation, credential harvesting, network reconnaissance, and identification of valuable business data. The study shows how attackers leverage AI to automate malicious scripting, infrastructure management, and command generation during intrusions.
Why it matters: Organizations face defenders who now scale attack capabilities through AI-assisted reconnaissance and tooling; defenders should assume attackers can identify high-value targets faster and adapt tactics more fluidly than before.
