US Cyber Firm Reports Blocking Coordinated AI-Driven Attack Linked to Chinese Hackers
A leading US cybersecurity firm reported that it successfully intercepted and neutralized a coordinated AI-enabled cyberattack attributed to a Chinese state-aligned hacking group. The operation allegedly targeted 30 organizations across North America, Europe, and Asia, spanning sectors such as defense, energy, advanced manufacturing, and critical infrastructure services. According to the firm, attackers used automated AI-driven intrusion tools capable of rapid vulnerability scanning, adaptive payload deployment, and real-time evasion of traditional security monitoring systems. The defense team deployed anomaly detection models and containment protocols that prevented network penetration and data exfiltration. 
Investigators noted that the attempted campaign reflects a broader shift toward AI-augmented offensive cyber capabilities used in cross-border espionage operations.
