Detecting APTs using ChatGPT for Windows Systems

APTs are a class of cyber-attacks where the intruder gains unauthorized access to a system and remains undetected for an extended period. These attacks often target organizations with high-value information, including financial data, intellectual property, or national security details. APTs are particularly challenging to detect due to their low-and-slow operational tactics and their use of sophisticated techniques to evade traditional security measures. This recipe aims to leverage the analytical capabilities of ChatGPT to assist in the active monitoring and detection of such threats on Windows systems. By combining native Windows utilities with ChatGPT’s natural language processing prowess, you can create a rudimentary, yet insightful, threat hunting tool. While this approach is not a replacement for specialized threat hunting software or experts, it serves as an educational or proof-of-concept method for understanding how AI...
