Just last week, authorities in California <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/china-google-justice-department-63156ade1e564d15d92adbef91e9c5da\">arrested a Chinese national<\/a> and accused him of stealing AI-related material from Google, his former employer, and sharing it with companies in China.<\/p>\n<p>Wray warned that if Chinese security agencies were to get access to U.S. AI models, their already formidable hacking crews would only improve their capabilities. \u201cIf they steal our AI to power it, it makes words like \u2018force multiplier\u2019 sound like an understatement,\u201d Wray said. <\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>The annual report notes that China \u201cremains the most persistent cyber threat to U.S. Government, private sector, and critical infrastructure networks\u201d and that Beijing has carried out a years-long effort to infiltrate key critical infrastructure networks around the United States. American spies assess that activity, which is widely tracked as <a href=\"https:\/\/cyberscoop.com\/tag\/volt-typhoon\/\">Volt Typhoon<\/a>, aims to give China the ability to disrupt communications between the United States and China in the event of a military conflict. <\/p>\n<p>Monday\u2019s hearing comes amid growing fears that the coming year might see U.S. adversaries attempt to influence this year\u2019s federal elections, and Monday\u2019s report argues that China, Russia and Iran all pose election security concerns.<\/p>\n<p>According to the report, China may interfere in 2024 to \u201csideline critics\u201d and \u201cmagnify U.S. societal divisions.\u201d Russia \u201cwill remain a serious foreign influence threat\u201d given its objectives in Ukraine and could use generative AI to better \u201chide their hand.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Iran may attempt to interfere as well, perhaps building on <a href=\"https:\/\/cyberscoop.com\/two-iranian-hackers-charged-in-sprawling-effort-to-interfere-in-2020-u-s-election\/\">a 2020 operation<\/a> that saw an Iran-linked group access voter data and target some voters with phony emails purporting to be from the right-wing group known as the Proud Boys. The group behind that operation has \u201cevolved their activities and developed a new set of techniques, combining cyber and influence capabilities,\u201d that it could use in 2024, according to the report.<\/p>\n<p>Monday\u2019s report also tracks the rapid proliferation of commercial spyware. From 2011 to 2023, according to the report, at least 73 countries \u201ccontracted with private companies to obtain commercial spyware, which governments are increasingly using to target dissidents and journalists.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>While policymakers in Washington <a href=\"http:\/\/cyberscoop.com\/predator-intellexa-cytrox-sanctions\/\">are increasingly cracking down<\/a> on the abuse of commercial spyware, Monday\u2019s hearing made clear that U.S. intelligence agencies are also consumers in the broader data economy in which commercial spyware firms operate. <\/p>\n<p>Asked about intelligence community purchases of commercially available data, Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines told the Senate Intelligence Committee that such data \u201cis just increasingly critical to the intelligence community\u2019s work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><\/body> <\/p>\n<footer class=\"single-article__footer\" readability=\"1.1142857142857\">\n<div class=\"author-card\" readability=\"8\">\n<div class=\"author-card__avatar\">\n<figure class=\"author-card__image-wrap\"> <img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"author-card__image\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ddi.mohflo.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/intelligence-officials-warn-pace-of-innovation-in-ai-threatens-us-1.jpg?w=640&ssl=1\" alt=\"AJ Vicens\"> <\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><h4 class=\"author-card__name\">Written by AJ Vicens<\/h4>\n<p> AJ covers nation-state threats and cybercrime.
