China-nexus actor steals thousands of documents in monthslong exploitation campaign

A China-nexus actor conducted a monthslong exploitation campaign to steal thousands of documents, with researchers suspecting the attacker used artificial intelligence (AI) language models to develop custom tools for the operation.

Why it matters: Organizations targeted by nation-state threat actors need to review access logs and implement detection for AI-generated malware tooling to identify similar campaigns in their environment.
