1) A rising amount of infrastructure attacks (cloud environment, dependencies, API hacking, front ends, third party providers API) on crypto protocols are often powered by LLM agents.

2) Previously successful DPRK intrusions (6- 12 months old) are being re-activated. DPRK sweeps logs and checks if there's any valuable access left. Remember to periodically rotate credentials and revoke access of old employees.

3) LLMs are used to design and execute full attack chains, both for web application pentesting as well as malware campaigns.
