Vibe Hacking: Two AI-Augmented Campaigns Target Government and Financial Sectors in Latin America

TrendAI Research identified two threat campaigns, SHADOW-AETHER-040 and SHADOW-AETHER-064, that employ agentic artificial intelligence (AI) to conduct intrusions against government and financial sector targets in Latin America. These campaigns represent early documented instances of AI agents executing end-to-end attack chains from initial access through data exfiltration.

Why it matters: Government and financial organizations in Latin America face active AI-augmented attacks; security teams should assess detection and response capabilities against autonomous AI-driven intrusions.
