Seoul police arrest ring accused of using AI to breach 90 organisations
Police in Seoul have arrested seven people accused of using generative AI to break into about 90 organisations and steal 8.2 million records, the country's first large-scale AI-assisted hacking case. Investigators say 60 of the intrusions used AI tooling, including an autonomous penetration-testing system, and that 38 victims were then pressed for a combined 360 million won. The alleged ringleader was a self-taught hacker who had worked in simulated attacks.
