The New Apex Predator: CrowdStrike CEO George Kurtz on Adversaries Armed With AI Agents
What was said
"And what people have to keep in mind is it's not malware anymore. It's prompts. So they can basically engineer prompts that would uniquely create create a totally unique signature of what direction they're going to go in, how they gather information, where they pivot."
George Kurtz argues that some adversaries are increasingly using prompts to drive actions and reconnaissance, producing highly variable behaviour that may not match reusable malware signatures. He says this rapid iteration makes it harder to distinguish and track attacks using traditional signature-based approaches.
