In a groundbreaking move that has cybersecurity experts everywhere shaking their heads in disbelief, new malware dubbed ‘EvilAI’ is making waves by posing as legitimate AI tools — but instead of improving workplace productivity, it’s helping hackers achieve the same results with decidedly more nefarious intent.

This cunning malware, disguised as a range of productivity enhancers, seems to think it’s doing its criminal users a favor. After all, who wouldn’t want a global organization’s data served on a silver platter, or, at the very least, tossed onto the dark web like confetti?

Security researchers have noted that this malware campaign doesn’t discriminate, aiming its digital lance at targets across Europe, the Americas, and the enigmatic AMEA regions. One can only assume EvilAI is simply trying to expand its LinkedIn network, one malware installation at a time.

Trend Micro, the cybersecurity firm that discovered this delightful twist in corporate espionage, has yet to comment on whether EvilAI plans to offer ‘premium’ versions of its tools, complete with extra malware and optional ransomware.
