AI-driven vulnerability discovery is no longer restricted to proprietary frontier models — smaller open-source models are already finding the same zero-days, so CISOs should assume that attackers will gain access within months.
While China seeks access to US cyber AI models, the US industry is racing to deploy these models for defensive measures quickly enough – but time is running short.
Frontier AI models compress the time span between vulnerability discovery and exploitation, making traditional patch cycles alone insufficient—organizations must build resilience through redundancy and faster recovery.
