AI Chatbot Claude Exploited in Cyber Attacks, Report Reveals

According to PANews, a recent report by AI infrastructure company Anthropic has revealed that its AI chatbot, Claude, is being used by cybercriminals to conduct large-scale cyber attacks, with ransom demands reaching up to $500,000. The report highlights that despite Claude's "complex" security measures, criminals are bypassing restrictions through a social engineering technique known as "vibe hacking. " This method manipulates human emotions, trust, and decision-making, enabling attackers with limited technical skills to execute sophisticated cyber crimes. One case involved a hacker using Claude to steal sensitive data from at least 17 organizations, including medical, government, and religious institutions, demanding ransoms in Bitcoin ranging from $75,000 to $500,000 source: https://www.binance.com/en/square/post/28915616836265?utm_source=BinanceNewsRSS
