Artificial intelligence is rapidly changing the cybersecurity landscape, enabling researchers to uncover software vulnerabilities and develop exploits at unprecedented speeds. Recent critical PHP vulnerabilities and resulting disruptions have highlighted the growing pressure on organizations to identify, prioritize, and address security weaknesses before attackers can exploit them.

In an article published by Reuters, RunSafe Security CTO Shane Fry joins cybersecurity experts in discussing how AI is fundamentally shortening the time between vulnerability discovery and potential exploitation. As AI-powered tools accelerate both discovery and exploit development, traditional patching timelines are becoming increasingly difficult to maintain, reinforcing the need for proactive security measures that reduce software exploitability.
