South Korean President Lee Jae Myung stated that artificial intelligence models appear to have been used in recent cyberattacks targeting commercial banks in the country.
Shinhan Bank, KB Kookmin Bank, Hana Bank, and Woori Bank suffered security breaches and customer personal information leaks, prompting full-scale police investigations.
Financial regulators shared 28 unique IP addresses and country information linked to the attacks with the financial sector after an emergency meeting convened by FSC Chairman Lee Eog-weon.
