Hacker leaves literal fingerprints at the crime scene

Darktrace has potentially been experienced the dumbest hack of all time, where the criminal purposely left their fingerprints at the crime scene. The AI company had installed fingerprint scanners at their warehouse to reduce the risk of attacks like these. The hacker began to delete fingerprints on the system in order to add theirs in so they could gain access. However, when the scanners began to act up, the security team became aware of the attack and were able to override it. Unsurprisingly, they knew who the hacker was.
