O que aconteceu
In March 2024, the ransomware group 3AM Affiliate breached a public secondary school in Germany. Researchers identified an AI‑like loop that generated and refined PowerShell commands in real time, feeding the output back into the attack workflow. The loop enabled rapid lateral movement, encryption of file systems, and exfiltration of student records. The attackers posted a ransom note demanding €150 k before the school’s IT team isolated the network and engaged external responders.
