CrowdStrike Warns of AI as Both Cyber Weapon and Target
CrowdStrike's 2026 Threat Hunting Report reveals that AI is increasingly being used as both a tool and a target in cyberattacks. Cybercriminals are leveraging AI to create sophisticated phishing schemes and exploit vulnerabilities faster than defenders can respond. The report highlights incidents like LLMJacking, where attackers gain access to AI models to perform malicious tasks, causing significant financial and operational impacts. The rapid adoption of AI by threat actors is creating larger attack surfaces, challenging cybersecurity teams to keep pace with the evolving threat landscape.
