Microsoft Flags AI-Driven Phishing: LLM-Crafted SVG Files Outsmart Email Security

Microsoft has identified a sophisticated phishing campaign targeting U.S.-based organizations that employs large language models (LLMs) to generate obfuscated code within SVG files, making malicious payloads harder to detect. This campaign leverages LLM-generated content to incorporate business terminology and synthetic structures, enhancing its ability to evade traditional security defenses. The development underscores the growing use of AI-generated code in cyberattacks, highlighting the need for advanced detection techniques to counter AI-assisted obfuscation methods.
