Decoding the black in BlackMamba; How does the world of malware look

Industry experts believe that the rise of AI-driven attacks, ranging from deepfakes to intricate phishing techniques, poses a challenge to digital security and public trust alike. Threat actors employ BlackMamba to evade detection, intensifying the complexity of the cybersecurity landscape. Every time BlackMamba executes, it re-synthesises its keylogging capability, making the malicious component of this malware polymorphic. “Amidst these challenges, AI has the ability to equip cybersecurity professionals with the tools to fortify digital environments, fostering a proactive stance against emerging threats. Its ability to discern patterns, mitigate risks, and enable real-time responses can reshape the cybersecurity paradigm,” Shibu Paul, vice president, international sales, Array Networks, a security platform, highlighted.
