The Rise of AI-Driven Attacks: Anthropic’s Event and PromptLock as a Turning Point 

The report outlines two emergent AI-driven threats: the Anthropic campaign—an alleged GTG-1002 state-sponsored operation that leveraged Claude AI to autonomously perform most attack stages against ~30 global targets—and PromptLock, an ESET-discovered proof-of-concept AI-powered ransomware written in Go that produces dynamic, cross-platform payloads and complicates traditional detection. It uses these cases to underscore Gartner's call for preemptive security (Deny, Deceive, Disrupt) and positions Morphisec's Automated Moving Target Defense (AMTD) as a proactive prevention-centric solution.
