AI RED TEAMING TOOLS HELPED X-FORCE BREAK INTO A TECH MANUFACTURER IN 8 HOURS

Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

IBM reported that its X-Force red team was able to compromise a network that they had allocated 3 weeks for in just 8 hours with the help of AI red teaming tools. The team found a vulnerability in the company's HR portal with the aid of the tooling and then installed a rootkit after exploiting the vulnerability and eventually pivoted through the network. IBM believes that these AI tools can be essential in analyzing the large volume of data accumulated in a red team assessment.
