CrowdStrike founder @george_kurtz says the HuggingFace hack consisted of "known attack chains." And that the problem of agentic hacking like the HuggingFace incident is tractable. "Because when we built our system, it was designed to look at what we call indicators of attack. So if you look at the whole attack chain, it's just linking all these [attacks] together. Irrespective of what happened, these are known attack chains." "Part of the issue was that [the hack] was flooded with so much information that I think it was just sort of buried — you know, 'What's going on? Is it real or is it not real?'" "And what is going to really take place is, the defenders have to use AI to be able to connect the dots on those — which we do — but then you also have to strip out all the noise. You have to separate the signal from the noise, and that's where these sorts of models perform well."
