Korean banks just got hit with a cyberattack—and here's the kicker: attackers allegedly weaponized Anthropic AI + Chinese AI tools to pull it off.
CrowdStrike dropped a report showing the breach started back in September, targeting financial institutions. This isn't just another phishing scam—this is AI-powered infiltration at scale.
What this means:
→ AI tools are now being used offensively in cyber warfare
→ Financial institutions = prime targets (especially in crypto-adjacent markets like Korea)
→ If they can breach banks, DeFi protocols and CEXs are next
Stay sharp. If you're holding funds on any exchange, enable 2FA, use hardware wallets, and assume nothing is safe by default.
The attack surface just got exponentially wider.
