AI-assisted FortiGate attacks have compromised more than 600 firewall devices across 55 countries. A financially motivated threat actor used commercial AI tools to automate reconnaissance and accelerate intrusion attempts. The campaign demonstrates how artificial intelligence now enables attackers to scale operations without deep technical expertise. Security researchers identified widespread exploitation of poorly secured FortiGate management…
More than 600 FortiGate firewalls were compromised in just five weeks in what investigators describe as an AI-assisted FortiGate breach. The campaign did not rely on zero-day exploits or advanced malware. Instead, the attacker combined basic security weaknesses with commercial AI tools to scale the operation globally. The incident demonstrates how artificial intelligence can amplify…
Attackers are actively exploiting a newly disclosed FortiGate flaw, putting organizations that rely on Fortinet firewalls at immediate risk. The FortiGate vulnerability exploit allows threat actors to bypass authentication mechanisms and gain unauthorized access to security appliances that often sit at the core of enterprise networks. The rapid move from disclosure to exploitation highlights how…
