Security News > 2023 > April > Malware and machine learning: A match made in hell

Automated malware campaigns will drastically change the reaction speed of malware gangs.

The technology to run malware campaigns and automatically bypass new defenses is most definitely doable nowadays, but thus far, we haven't seen anything of the kind.

Simply writing malware is not illegal; using it to infect people's systems or to cause damage is.

How can we block malware like LLMorpher or new strains based on it?

Some similar models are downloadable, so we will probably see those embedded into malware eventually.

Detecting malicious behavior is the best bet against malware that uses large language models, and this is best done by security products, which also use machine learning!
