So, about VoidLink, the sophisticated Linux malware which came to light last week. Researchers have spent more time examining it and they've concluded that rather than being developed by a crack team of cyber criminals... it was developed largely by AI.

(Helped along with prompts from one person.)

"VoidLink demonstrates that the long-awaited era of sophisticated AI-generated malware has likely begun,” said the Check Point Software Research.

β€œIn the hands of individual experienced threat actors or malware developers, AI can build sophisticated, stealthy and stable malware frameworks that resemble those created by sophisticated and experienced threat groups.”

Write-up by me for Infosecurity Magazine.

(I only had to self-edit myself twice after I typed VoidLink as Voidsent - a type of monster from Final Fantasy XIV...)
