Frontier AI models now blueprint attacks on critical infrastructure, research finds

New research from cybersecurity firm Frenos shows top-tier AI models can map cyberattacks on power grids and water systems with high success rates, accelerating the threat timeline for critical infrastructure operators. The capability is emerging in frontier models and is expected to proliferate to freely available AI, compressing the window for defensive measures. The claim is based on a single vendor's research and has not been independently corroborated.
