A computer-implemented method for determining whether GPUs are executing potentially malicious processes may include (1) identifying at least one GPU associated with a computing device, (2) analyzing the behavior of the GPU associated with the computing device, (3) determining that the analyzed behavior of the GPU indicates that the GPU is executing at least one potentially malicious process, and then (4) performing at least one security action on the GPU in response to determining that the analyzed behavior indicates that the GPU is executing the potentially malicious process. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
