Amazon's Decoy Servers Capture Memory Logs of China-Linked AI Hacking Agents

Decoy servers captured the operating memory and attack logs of autonomous hacking agents between Oct. 3 and Nov. 5. Amazon has moderate confidence the agents were operated by several separate China-linked groups using the open-source ARTEX framework. The agents attempted to bypass identity checks of two cryptocurrency exchanges by injecting real-time deepfakes into selfie authentication requests.
