AI Security Vulnerability

Artificial intelligence is dramatically accelerating the discovery of software vulnerabilities, generating an overwhelming backlog of Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) that organizations struggle to remediate. This creates an expanding attack surface, necessitating a strategic shift towards proactively mitigating the exploitability of unfixed vulnerabilities, such as memory safety issues, to manage escalating cyber risk.
