AI Accelerates the Race: CISA Forces Federal Agencies to Patch Vulnerabilities in 3 Days

As AI tools dramatically accelerate both vulnerability discovery and exploitation, traditional patching timelines have become dangerously slow.

This sets a new standard that will likely cascade across private sector and global security practices.
