Exfiltration via Cyber Means

This is when a hacker steals sensitive AI files or data by using standard digital break-in methods, similar to how a thief might copy private documents from a computer network.

The unauthorized transfer of AI-related assets, such as model weights, training datasets, or proprietary configurations, from a target environment to an external location using established network-based exfiltration techniques.

The tactical execution of data egress involving the unauthorized movement of AI artifacts—including model parameters, training corpora, and inference metadata—leveraging traditional cyber attack vectors as defined in the MITRE ATT&CK Exfiltration tactic (TA0010) to achieve adversary objectives.
