This executive brief explores the rapid emergence of AI systems capable of autonomously discovering and exploiting software vulnerabilities at unprecedented speed and scale. It highlights a structural shift in cybersecurity, where time-to-exploit has collapsed from weeks to hours, overwhelming traditional patching and response models. The report emphasizes that simply patching faster is no longer sufficient; organizations must identify and break viable attack paths that threaten critical assets. By adopting threat-informed strategies and continuous validation, security leaders can better manage business risk, maintain resilience, and adapt to an environment where attackers operate at machine speed.
