CyberStrikeAI tool adopted by hackers for AI-powered attacks
Summary
Hackers are using CyberStrikeAI, an open-source AI security testing platform, to automate attacks against network devices like firewalls. The tool combines over 100 security utilities with an AI decision engine (compatible with GPT, Claude, and DeepSeek models) to automatically scan networks, find vulnerabilities, and execute attacks with minimal hacker skill required. Researchers warn this represents a growing threat as adversaries adopt AI-powered orchestration engines (systems that coordinate multiple tools automatically) to target exposed network equipment.
