A hacker broke into John Deere and SharkNinja with an army of AI agents

An independent security researcher successfully breached over 100 corporate websites, including those belonging to John Deere, SharkNinja, and Cummins, by utilizing autonomous AI agents. These agents were reportedly capable of identifying and exploiting vulnerabilities without significant human intervention. This incident highlights a growing shift in cybersecurity threats, as the use of automated tools allows attackers to conduct large-scale, persistent vulnerability scans that are more difficult to detect than traditional manual exploits.
