The (Un)Natural Science of Malware – Cybersecurity Conference

The (Un)Natural Science of Malware

“Malware is unnatural in its origin, yet natural in its behavior. Like viruses in biology, it mutates, adapts, and survives, shaped by selective pressures in its digital habitat. This keynote explores the (Un)Natural Science of malware—where code mimics life, evolves under threat, and thrives in a human-shaped ecosystem.”
