AI Agent Does the Hacking: First Documented AI-Orchestrated Cyber Espionage

from Shared Security Hosted by Tom Eston, Kevin Johnson

In this episode, we discuss the first reported AI-driven cyber espionage campaign, as disclosed by Anthropic. In September 2025, a state-sponsored Chinese actor manipulated the Claude Code tool to target 30 global organizations. We explain how the attack was executed, why it matters, and its implications for cybersecurity. Join the conversation as we examine the details, Anthropic's response, and the broader impact on AI in cybersecurity.
