Troy West was in Warsaw when his dinner was interrupted by his phone. But he was happy about it.<\/p>\n

West, associate director of cybersecurity for autonomous offensive security company XBOW, had just learned that a trial version of the company\u2019s platform had found a vulnerability that led to a full takedown of a development environment used by Moderna, the pharmaceutical company primarily known for its work related to mRNA vaccines.<\/p>\n

It was, by most measures, exactly the kind of outcome a security team dreads. But for West and Farzan Karimi, Moderna\u2019s deputy CISO, it was something closer to a proof of concept. XBOW\u2019s product had done in hours what a human penetration tester could not \u2014 and it had done so with a level of persistence and creativity that neither of them had fully anticipated.<\/p>\n

The episode is one data point in a much larger shift now rippling through the cybersecurity industry: The artificial intelligence models discovering vulnerabilities are moving faster than the teams that have to patch them.<\/p>\n

Across recent conversations and presentations, industry experts said the tools are getting sharper, the attack surface is getting larger, and the gap between finding a problem and fixing it is not closing fast enough. For now, most organizations are caught between the speed of discovery and the slowness of remediation, with vendors across the industry rushing to position their products as the way through.<\/p>\n

A shift in scale\u00a0<\/h4>\n

The inflection point came with Claude Mythos. When Anthropic announced the highly guarded model, security executives at major enterprise technology companies took notice in a way they had not with prior frontier releases.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Zscaler was among the early organizations given access to the model, and CEO Jay Chaudhry told CyberScoop that he directed his team to use it to probe the company\u2019s own applications.<\/p>\n

\u201cAre we finding some serious stuff? Yes, indeed,\u201d Chaudhry told CyberScoop at Gartner\u2019s…<\/p>\n
