Beijing escalating AI espionage to catch up with the U.S. on tech, cybersecurity firm says

▤ Summary

CrowdStrike warns that China-linked attackers are increasingly targeting technology companies to steal AI capabilities and intellectual property. The report says these actors account for a large share of state-sponsored attacks against tech firms, especially those tied to AI assets. The article also notes that North Korea-linked groups are continuing to target IT workers across regions to support regime revenue. Anthropic’s recent rollout of its model to CrowdStrike and the public release of a new version add context, but the main story centers on cyber espionage trends.
