🖥️ Anthropic has just revealed that an AI carried out almost an entire cyberattack on its own. The hackers merely supplied the objectives, deceived the model by posing as internal teams, and then the AI did the rest: scanning systems, exploiting vulnerabilities, moving through the network, stealing credentials, analysing data and preparing the exfiltration. We are no longer talking about a tool that assists, but a machine that executes an attack from end to end.🛡️ This scenario shows just how fast the landscape is evolving. Faster, automated and more accessible attacks are coming, and our defences must keep pace! Better control of access, reducing what is exposed, detecting behaviour that does not resemble human actions and setting traps to spot automated agents.✨ At Awareness Expert, we support you and offer tailor-made awareness campaigns, adapted to these lightning-fast advances.
