    Japan has announced an emergency cybersecurity package that includes AI and cyber rescue teams. Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi emphasized the need for a rapid response to potential attacks in the era of AI-generated threats. This announcement comes after a wave of data breaches hit major companies and government agencies. The package, worth 10 billion yen, aims to build a resilient society by sharing information and providing swift assistance. The government will enhance its capability to access servers used by hackers and deploy support teams for national security challenges. A "top gun" team of cybersecurity experts will be set up by the end of November.
