AI Broke Vulnerability Management. That's Why CISOs Are Moving Budget to BAS.

AI has accelerated vulnerability discovery and exploitation, collapsing the traditional time buffer that vulnerability management depended on.

• •Claude Mythos discovered over 10,000 critical vulnerabilities in a single month; exploitation windows compressed from months to hours, with 99% remaining unpatched
• •CVSS-based severity scoring fails against hundreds of daily disclosures; organizations must shift to assessing actual exploitability in their specific environments
• •Median patch time increased to 43 days while mean time-to-exploit fell to 24 hours, creating an impossible remediation window between discovery and active exploitation
• •Breach and Attack Simulation (BAS) validates which vulnerabilities are truly exploitable against existing controls, differentiating real threats from theoretical risks
