Threat Score
Unit 42’s 2026 IR report assesses AI as a force multiplier that accelerates established attack techniques—phishing, credential theft, exploitation, and ransomware—rather than creating wholly new vectors; it calls out emerging AI-enabled threats (e.g., agentic ransomware, token jacking) and recommends prioritizing prevention, AI-assisted defenses, and critical human validation of AI outputs.
