AI is making cyberattacks easier for less-skilled criminals in Japan

Japan is facing what is described as a “carpet bombing” of unauthorized access attempts.

The attacks involve efforts to gain access to systems without permission.

The story says the spread of AI has made it easier for criminals to launch attacks.

They may now do so without advanced technical skills.

This lowers the barrier to carrying out cyberattacks.

The story does not give details about specific targets or the scale of the attacks.

It does not say what countermeasures are planned or what happens next.
