2023-05-15 19:54

Google has added support for more scripting languages to VirusTotal Code Insight, a recently introduced artificial intelligence-based code analysis feature.

While launched only with support for analyzing a subset of PowerShell files, Code Insight can now also spot malicious Batch, Command Prompt, Shell, and VBScript scripts.

"Code Insight has broadened its support for script formats, moving beyond PowerShell to offer analysis for a variety of scripting languages," VirusTotal founder Bernardo Quintero said.

To facilitate the analysis of larger files, Code Insight has also been updated to have an increased maximum file size limit, doubling the capacity for processing.

VirusTotal announced the launch of Code Insight last month as an AI-based code analysis feature powered by the Google Cloud Security AI Workbench, which uses the Sec-PaLM large language model fine-tuned for security use cases.

Enriching analysis by incorporating contextual information beyond the code itself.
