AI agents lead the fight back against a growing array of threats

Estimated reading time: 4 minutes

Autonomous AI agents are showing early promise in spotting software flaws before attackers do, potentially reshaping the cybersecurity landscape.

The rise of artificial intelligence has long been viewed as a double-edged sword in cybersecurity, amplifying threats in the hands of attackers, while offering promise for defense.

Now, rather than simply detecting known vulnerabilities, a new wave of AI agents have the potential to proactively identify unknown flaws, simulate attacker behavior, and even suggest or implement fixes. Although still in its early stages, this technology has the potential to reshape the future of vulnerability management and shrink the window of opportunity for attackers.
