### AI overview

Unit 42 analyzes 405 malware samples incorporating AI through mechanisms such as brand impersonation, LLM-generated code, and agentic execution loops. The research finds that most samples remain proof-of-concept or sandbox activity, while existing behavioral detection, cloud sandboxing, and endpoint analytics can detect the threats that reach operational environments.
