The AI battleground is here. Adversaries are weaponizing AI to launch attacks with unprecedented scale, speed, and effectiveness. In response, defenders are turning to AI as an analyst force-multiplier, using it to offload repetitive tasks, accelerate decision-making, and scale expertise across the SOC.

Today’s enterprising adversaries are weaponizing AI to scale operations, accelerate attacks, and target the autonomous AI agents quickly transforming modern businesses. The CrowdStrike 2025 Threat Hunting Report details this new chapter in the threat landscape. This year’s report, based on frontline intelligence from CrowdStrike’s elite threat hunters and intelligence analysts, examines how threat actors are using AI to do more with less.
