The Closed Quorum: Inside the first reported autonomous AI C2 implant
Cisco Talos documented CLOSEDQUORUM, described as the first publicly reported Windows implant with fully autonomous command and control that delegates its next-action decisions to a quorum of up to four commercial LLMs (DeepSeek, Qwen, Mistral, and Google Gemini) to harvest credentials and crypto wallets without a human operator. The binary was discovered via Talos' CAIRN project; artifacts linked its developer to carding-related criminal forum postings dating to 2025, though no in-the-wild deployment has been confirmed.autonomous-c2 · ai-integrated-malware · agentic-worm · credential-theft · data-exfiltration
