Binance says hackers used fake job interviews and an internal AI tool to pull off the $6.3 billion heist

Binance reports that hackers initiated a massive cryptocurrency theft by tricking an employee into downloading a malicious software installer during a fake job interview process. Once inside the network, the attackers utilized an internal artificial intelligence tool to facilitate unauthorized access and move funds. This breach, resulting in the largest crypto heist to date, highlights how social engineering combined with compromised internal systems can bypass sophisticated corporate security measures.
