AI-Made Malware:
Undetectable, Unstoppable

AI-generated malware being assembled on a dark workstation

Estimated Exposure: 114 organisations hit across 3 continents. Still active.

What Happened: AI writes the malware. Every variant is unique — never been seen before, so antivirus software can’t detect it. Disguised as legitimate software. 114 organisations hit. Manufacturing, government, and healthcare. Campaign still running. AI finds the targets. AI writes the code. AI deploys the attack. AI moves to the next target. Thousands per hour. No human required. The internet hasn’t lit up yet. This is the spark.
