Summary

Hide ▲

Adversarial AI-based attacks, such as those by Scattered Spider, are accelerating and leveraging living-off-the-land methods to spread and evade detection. These attacks use AI orchestration to perform network reconnaissance, discover vulnerabilities, move laterally, and harvest data at speeds that overwhelm manual detection methods. The Cloud Security Alliance report highlights over 70 ways autonomous AI-based agents can attack enterprise systems, expanding the attack surface beyond traditional security practices. Network Detection and Response (NDR) systems are increasingly being adopted to counter these AI-driven threats by providing real-time monitoring, analyzing network data, and identifying abnormal traffic patterns. NDR solutions can detect fast-moving, polymorphic attacks, summarize network activities, and render verdicts on potential threats, reducing the pressure on SOC analysts.
