Chinese Hackers Use AI on Hijacked Networks to Evade Detection

Google says China-linked hacking groups are increasingly using AI while operating through compromised networks, making their attacks harder for cybersecurity teams to detect. One group has targeted organizations involved in academic, medical, and military AI research, suggesting that advanced technology and sensitive research are major espionage targets. The findings show how AI is becoming a tool for cyberattacks while hackers use stolen infrastructure to disguise where their activity actually originates.
