MalGEN Multi-Agent Pipeline Flow Diagram
Three autonomous agents coordinate sequentially to generate evasive malware from a behavioral objective.
Flow diagram showing three agents: Planner, Payload Generator, Evasion Implementer, connected by arrows indicating sequential data flow. Planner Agent Decomposes mission objective
into ATT&CK technique chain Payload Generator Synthesizes novel functional
malware code from specs
Evasion Implementer Applies sandbox-aware
and anti-analysis layers
Behavioral Objective Evasive Malware Sample
