UPDATE: #ESETresearch was contacted by the authors of an academic study, whose research prototype closely resembles the discovered #PromptLock samples found on VirusTotal: Ransomware 3.0: Self-Composing and LLM-Orchestrated (arXiv) arxiv.org/abs/2508.20444 This supports our…
🚨 ESET Research has uncovered PromptLock — the first known AI-powered ransomware. By generating malicious Lua scripts on the fly, it shows how AI could supercharge future cyberattacks. 🔐 Read more in our blog. #ESET #ProgressProtected #Cybersecurity #ESETresearch
Anyone know what happened to author Will Panzo? Wrote one novel (penguinrandomhouse.com/authors/213483…) nearly 10 years ago and nothing since. Twitter + Reddit accounts are gone.
#ESETresearch’s very own Peter Kálnai along with Matěj Havránek will present at #VB2025 @virusbtn : “DeceptiveDevelopment and 🇰🇵 North Korean IT workers: from primitive crypto theft to sophisticated AI-based deception.” Join them in Berlin, September 25 at 14:30 CEST. 1/3
I was a guest commentator on @Tech_SanDiego's T3: Talking Tech Talent podcast, which interviewed the CEO of a company hit by ransomware. Listen in at audioboom.com/posts/8762944-…
#ESETresearch has discovered a zero-day vulnerability in WinRAR, exploited in the wild by Russia-aligned #RomCom @dmnsch @cherepanov74 welivesecurity.com/en/eset-resear… 1/7
Expect an update from @ESETresearch soon… In the meantime, make sure you update your copy of @WinRAR_RARLAB to v7.13 like I have.

#ESETresearch joins Europol’s Cyber Intelligence Extension Programme (CIEP) 🤝 We are proud to announce ESET’s participation in the pilot phase of CIEP, a new initiative launched by @Europol 's European Cybercrime Centre (@EC3Europol). 1/5
My latest podcast for @ESET is now out! Listen in as I speak with fellow researchers from @ESETresearch about the threats we saw on the rise in the first half of 2025.
So there I was, minding my own business, and this delivery truck pulls up… Could there be something from @intel inside?
Tip for phishers: When sending fake @McAfee invoices in attempt to get someone to call + give you their bank card details, you should capitalize the "A" in McAfee. Grammar matters, especially when conducting credit card fraud.

Hmm… that's not good. Funding for program to stop next Stuxnet from hitting US expired Sunday theregister.com/2025/07/22/lap… via @TheRegister
Congratulations to my @ESET colleagues on their anniversaries! J.S. (10th), M.K. (14th), B.O. (15th), R.K. (16th), T.K. (20th), J.S. (25th), and B.L. (30th)! 🍰🎇🥂 (also, I guess we do a lot of hiring in July…)
Hi folks, Prompt||GTFO is returning this Thursday (24 July), at noon Eastern. Let's take AI/ML back from the marketers. For access, please register here: forms.gle/HMUvJ8CU4GQYZM…
I've noticed an uptick in phishes using pictures of fake BBC and X/Twitter pages mentioning MrBeast. The images are posted in chat servers like Discord. Naturally, he has nothing to do with them, and as soon as you give the scammers your bank details they're cashing you out.
#ESETresearch has mapped the labyrinth of #AsyncRAT forks, identifying the most prevalent versions of this open-source malware. While some variants are mere curiosities, others pose a more tenacious threat. welivesecurity.com/en/eset-resear… 1/7
