Anthropic says Claude used for cyberattacks and surveillance
A Russian-speaking operator targeted more than 20 organizations, while a Mali consultant used Claude to build a mass-surveillance platform. Russian- and Chinese-speaking operators used Anthropic’s Claude to automate cyberattacks, the company said in a Thursday report. Russian-speaking operator “JackPoterz” used customized AI-driven workflows to automate large parts of the attack chain, targeting more than 20 organizations, including government ministries and intelligence bodies. The actor also targeted embassies and diplomatic missions in Ukraine and Europe. Chinese-speaking operators also used Claude as an engineering and orchestration layer for vulnerability research, with one workflow producing more than a dozen possible zero-day findings in network-appliance firmware in one month.
