Key terms explained:
Breach: Gaining access to systems or data without authorisation, usually by exploiting a software flaw or misconfiguration.
AI agents: Software that completes whole tasks by taking successive steps on its own, which makes its behaviour harder to predict than a model that only answers questions.
Cybersecurity: The technical and organisational measures that protect systems and data from digital attacks.
Hugging Face: A global platform where developers share open AI models and the datasets used to train them.
AI Safety Institute (AISI): A government research body that tests advanced models and measures their risks before wide deployment.
Non-human identities: Accounts and access keys used by software and automated agents inside systems, which can be abused just like human accounts.
