First time that I heard about an AI trying to spot a malware used for crypto jacking. It says it also focus on supercomputers but maybe it could also be implemented for desktop as well. Good if they could develop and make improvements, but they admit that this graph based approach couldn't capture all scenarios.

How hard can it be to detect that you computer is under full load even when idle or just doing some non-intensive tasks? Your fans will get louder, you might notice some heat, your performance will slow down.

slow downs of processing might give you an idea that your computer is under mining phase by the hackers, software checking is the best way to get those bastards be seen. Does a simple anti-virus can't detect malicious software like this? I mean I think we should be getting an upgrade for our anti-virus to detect heavy usage such as crypto mining. What do you think of this?

And even for supercomputers, I doubt that AI is requires or is the best solution. They too can measure their load and detect suspicious processes, and if that is not enough, they can target crypto mining specifically, as it should leave a specific signature.

But if the hacker is smart enough, attacking supercomputer will be easier if it can't detect a malicious software, he can just set the mining to minimum and since the supercomputer can mine faster I think that would not be noticeable at all.
