Your AI keys are now worth stealing for their own sake. Anthropic’s September 2026 threat report finds that access to AI (compromised API keys, session tokens and devices) “has increasingly become the sole objective of multiple criminal groups,” who sell it through brokers into fraudulent reseller networks. The report explains why: an attacker holding your AI credentials gains three things at once. Loot, because stolen keys resell in established markets. Compute, because their attack workloads run at your expense. And cover, because the activity is attributed to you.
