Sygnia reported that a threat actor apparently used purportedly AI-assisted or agentic workflows to move rapidly through an unidentified organization's AWS environment during an approximately 72-hour intrusion. The attacker allegedly expanded from an Internet-facing application into cloud infrastructure and data stores, reportedly stealing credentials and sensitive information while demonstrating the ability to disrupt services as leverage for extortion. Sygnia did not identify a specific model.
