The threat actor group Exilware, believed to be Portuguese speakers, heavily uses generative AI for malware development, backend data triage, and target prioritization, primarily targeting Iberian and Latin American e-commerce, financial, and corporate environments. Why: The notable detail for builders is the confirmed use of generative AI across the full attack chain — not just code generation but automated data triage and victim prioritization — which signals that AI-assisted malware tooling is maturing fast enough to commercialize initial access at near-zero prices. No direct action required for this audience since targets are Iberian/Latin American, but it's a concrete data point for anyone building AI-powered security tooling or assessing threat models. security malware ai-assisted-cybercrime python
