The Last Line of Defense Against AI-Powered Ransomware

Mimic announces the only kernel-level, preemptive cyber defense that protects at the speed of AI

AI-Powered Ransomware Rewrites Itself To Evade Traditional Security Solutions Including EDR

In November 2025, attackers began using large-language models during execution to rewrite their code — in some cases every hour. Each version is unique. Each mutation erases the forensic trail. And each regeneration defeats signatures, heuristics, baselines, and even modern EDR systems.

Detection-Based Security Has Hit a Wall

These new attack families query AI models to produce fresh, obfuscated code, save new variants into startup directories, and persist quietly using legitimate system pathways. The result is a threat that doesn’t just evade detection — it invalidates it.

Change is Now the Weapon

Every AI-driven attack relies on one foundational action: altering something trusted. Registry keys, configurations, processes, services. If you can’t see or control change at the moment it occurs, you can’t contain the attack.

AI-Powered Defense for AI-Powered Ransomware

Modern EDR, XDR, SIEM, and anomaly-based security tools were built on an assumption that no longer holds true: attacks behave in recognizable, repeatable patterns. AI-driven ransomware breaks that model completely.

Constant Mutation

AI-powered ransomware regenerates its own code repeatedly. Each rewrite erases the indicators defenders rely on:

No stable signatures
No persistent IOCs
No consistent behavior trails

Trusted Execution

Instead of dropping obviously malicious binaries, modern ransomware blends into normal operations. It hijacks legitimate system-automation tools like:

PowerShell
VBScript
CI/CD and DevOps pipelines

Control Subversion

AI-driven threats don’t just evade security controls. They change them.

Disable or tamper with endpoint agents
Blind EDR/XDR telemetry
Modify configurations that monitoring tools depend on

Known Good

Cyber Defense That Enforces the Known Good. This is Not Detection. This is Enforcement.

Mimic doesn’t chase threats. It preempts them. Instead of guessing which behaviors might be malicious, Mimic preemptively enforces the trusted, known good state of your systems and blocks everything else at the exact moment of change.

Impact

AI-powered ransomware has shifted the threat landscape for every enterprise leader responsible for security, privacy, resilience, or regulatory trust. These attacks no longer target files — they target the foundations of organizational integrity.

Data Integrity Risk

Compromised code pipelines silently alter logic
Trusted services are rewritten in place
Critical data can be manipulated repeatedly without detection

When the data is wrong, every downstream decision, model, and audit becomes wrong too.

Insiders & The AI Paradox

Privileged scripts behave like insiders
Model hallucinations make unauthorized decisions at root level
Poisoned training data can trigger harmful changes at scale

Insider threat programs weren’t built for non-human insiders.

Compliance Exposure

Regulators expect proof of control, not assumptions of control.
Unmonitored AI-initiated changes can quietly violate:

PCI-DSS
SOX
GDPR
NIST or internal governance frameworks

When changes can occur without human oversight, compliance lacks accountability.

Mimic Restores Confidence

Mimic brings enforceable trust back to the enterprise by making every system change observable, validated, and reversible.

Unauthorized modifications are stopped at the kernel layer
All change events are logged immutably
Application drift is eliminated before it becomes downtime or breach
Ransomware mutations cannot bypass enforced integrity

When AI-powered malware rewrites itself every hour, Mimic keeps your business safe  and operational.

Preemptive Cyber Defense Is Now the Foundation

For executives, this isn’t an emerging trend — it’s the architectural shift required to safeguard data, operations, and regulatory trust in an AI-driven world.

Mimic Strengthens Your Stack

Mimic amplifies the value of your existing security investments, ensuring they hold up against modern threats like self-modifying AI ransomware.Instead of competing with your tools, Mimic ensures they keep working when you need them most.

Protects the Tools That Protect You

AI-powered ransomware routinely targets the security stack first. Mimic prevents that.

Shields EDR and XDR agents from being disabled or modified
Protects backup and BCDR systems from tampering
Ensures core defenses stay online even during active attacks

Your tools can't help you if they're the first systems taken offline. Mimic eliminates that failure point.

Closes Detection Gaps

Modern threats use trusted automation pathways and insider-level privileges. Detection tools often never see the change happen. Mimic closes that gap by:

Blocking unauthorized or stealthy kernel-level changes before EDR can detect them
Intercepting insider or AI-initiated modifications in real-time
Supplying SIEM platforms with verified, kernel-level change telemetry that exposes misuse, drift, and tampering

This turns the blind spots in your stack into high-fidelity signals.
