Generative AI Accelerates Malware Development For Cross-Platform Attacks

Generative AI Accelerates Malware Development For Cross-Platform Attacks

Hackers are increasingly turning to generative artificial intelligence (AI) technology to craft sophisticated malware and phishing attacks targeting individuals and organizations alike. A recent discovery of a malware campaign by HP Wolf Security involved the AsyncRAT malware delivered through AI-generated code. The attackers used HTML smuggling techniques to deliver password-protected ZIP archives, which, once cracked, unleashed scripts establishing persistence on infected machines. The organized structure and explanatory comments in the code resembled outputs of generative AI. Researchers noted that generative AI allows even less-skilled hackers to develop advanced malware quickly. The malware campaign also demonstrated how attackers used generative AI not only for writing code but also for speeding up their workflow in developing threats targeting different platforms. Additionally, archives were reported as the most common delivery method in the first half of 2024.

New Chinese Kamikaze Drone Surpasses U.S. Rivals With Longer Range Speed

New Chinese Kamikaze Drone Surpasses U.S. Rivals With Longer Range Speed

China unveiled the PD-2900, a large twin-engine kamikaze drone with Russian camouflage capable of reaching Taiwan. It features advanced technology, a 2,500-km range, and a 100-kg payload capacity. The unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), which resembles drones used in the Russia-Ukraine war, offers a more affordable alternative to cruise missiles. Developed by Xian Modern Control Technology Institute under Norinco, a Chinese company, the drone is faster, has a longer range, and can hover over targets, surpassing its U.S. counterpart, the Switchblade 600. This development could impact the balance of drone warfare in the region surrounding Taiwan.
