AI-Powered Malware and the Future of Threat Hunting

On this episode of Crying Out Cloud, Eden Koby Naftali & Amitai Cohen sit down with John Hammond to unpack the reality of autonomous AI hacking and why cybercriminals are operating like Fortune 500 startups.
1. Why modern ransomware groups have sales teams, HR, and go-to-market strategies.
2. How autonomous AI agents are finding zero-days while researchers sleep.
3. Glimpsing the future of non-deterministic, AI-driven command and control (C2) servers.
4. Real talk on incident response burnout and why the "always-on" hustle is breaking defenders.

The AI bug hunting revolution is here, and it just broke Linux.

On this episode of Crying Out Cloud, Eden Koby Naftali & Amitai Cohen sit down with Tim Becker and Jacob Newman from Xint to unpack CopyFail, a powerful vulnerability found using autonomous AI agents.

1. How Xint's custom LLM harness uncovered CopyFail, a privilege escalation bug affecting almost every Linux machine since 2017.

2. The harsh reality of vulnerability disclosure in the AI era and why 90 days is too long when models can weaponize exploits instantly by patch-diffing.

3. The evolution of AI agents in security, from the DARPA AI Cyber Challenge to Claude 3.5 Sonnet to Mythos.

4. The importance of benchmarking in agentic workflows.
