#### **Threats Abusing AI, Clop Extortion Ecosystem**

****Threat Content Highlights****

Threat Profiles, Objects, & Tags

- - - “Trending & Emerging Threats” weekly update: **Threats Abusing AI** 
                  - This profile collects the objects tagged with Tidal Cyber's ["AI Threat_Uses AI" tag](https://app.tidalcyber.com/tags/t/3b73c532-ccfc-4d66-9830-ab76ef1bc47a), which tracks adversaries known to have abused artificial intelligence ("AI") capabilities to support or enhance their operations (in contrast with adversaries attacking AI systems).
                  - The collection was recently updated following Google Cloud’s [new report](https://cloud.google.com/blog/topics/threat-intelligence/adversarial-misuse-generative-ai) spotlighting actors seen abusing the company's AI technology to bolster their efforts.
                  - This profile is especially helpful for assessing coverage around the many later-stage TTPs associated with these actors, which could be observed more often as AI lowers barriers especially on the Initial Access front.
          - New **Clop Extortion Ecosystem** profile added by default to all tenants, tracking the Campaigns and Software most recently associated with this threat cluster (which has notably shifted away from [traditional encryption attacks](https://app.tidalcyber.com/software/5321aa75-924c-47ae-b97a-b36f023abf2a?tab=2) towards [exfiltration-focused activity](https://app.tidalcyber.com/campaigns/2c957f94-8b61-49b9-b914-74a06f8b91cd?tab=2)).
