A hierarchy of attackers
CrowdStrike CEO George Kurtz describes a hierarchy of attackers: hacktivists, cybercriminal groups and nation-state actors.
CrowdStrike CEO George Kurtz describes a hierarchy of attackers: hacktivists, cybercriminal groups and nation-state actors.
The claimed shift
Kurtz argues that AI is changing this hierarchy by making capabilities previously associated with well-resourced actors available more broadly. He calls this emerging threat the “agent state.”
Kurtz argues that AI is changing this hierarchy by making capabilities previously associated with well-resourced actors available more broadly. He calls this emerging threat the “agent state.”
He reports seeing more vulnerabilities discovered and faster attack iteration. He warns that slower AI-assisted attacks may eventually be harder to distinguish from other activity. These are his assessments.
