Critical Vulnerabilities Remain Unpatched for a Decade, AI Offers Solution

A significant portion of critical vulnerabilities, nearly half of the 2,182 active ones, are approximately ten years old. The average latency for patching these vulnerabilities is around ten years, contrasting sharply with the typical five days it takes for an exploit to emerge. Artificial intelligence could potentially improve the scanning of these vulnerabilities compared to human penetration testers. AI

IMPACT AI could significantly improve the speed and efficiency of identifying and patching critical cybersecurity vulnerabilities.
