CrowdStrike's 2026 Global Threat Report shows 89% YoY increase in AI-enabled attacks, with average breakout time falling to 29 minutes (65% faster than 2024). Fastest recorded: 27 seconds. Data exfiltration began within 4 minutes in one case. Critically for builders: attackers are weaponizing victims' own local AI tools (Claude CLI and Gemini CLI) by shipping malicious npm packages that instruct these tools to steal credentials and cryptocurrency. Action: Treat AI CLI tools with terminal access as privileged attack surface. Vet npm dependencies. (GBHackers, CybersecurityNews)
