LOUIS&#8211;(BUSINESS WIRE)&#8211;<\/span>World Wide Technology (WWT), a global technology solutions provider, today announced the launch of \u201cDefending at the Speed of AI,\u201d a global cybersecurity initiative WWT developed in collaboration with Horizon3.ai, Empirical Security, Infoblox, and Cognition. The integrated program, available in WWT&#8217;s Advanced Technology Center (ATC) and Cyber Range, operates at machine speed to address a critical gap in modern security infrastructure: the accelerating pace of AI-powered cyberattacks.<\/p>\n<p xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xhtml\">\nFrontier AI models have rewritten the adversary playbook. Vulnerabilities are now discovered in hours, not weeks; phishing and social engineering are generated at scale and at native fluency; and multi-stage intrusions can be orchestrated with minimal human oversight. Traditional security stacks designed for human-paced attackers were not built for this reality, creating a major blind spot for enterprises.<\/p>\n<p xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xhtml\">\n&#8220;The window between disclosure and exploitation has collapsed,&#8221; said Chris Konrad, Vice President, Global Cyber at WWT. &#8220;By combining continuous autonomous testing, risk prioritization, upstream threat prevention, and AI-accelerated remediation, \u2018Defending at the Speed of AI\u2019 enables organizations to detect, prioritize and respond to threats at the pace of an AI-enabled adversary.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xhtml\">\nEach partner brings a distinct capability to the joint stack:<\/p>\n<p xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xhtml\">\nHorizon3.ai \u2014 Prove: Production-safe, continuous and autonomous testing of defenses at the speed of AI finds and prioritizes what attackers can exploit, replacing assumption-based security with evidence.<\/p>\n<p xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xhtml\">\n&#8220;Attackers are no longer human-paced. Neither are we. Horizon3\u2019s NodeZero platform is critical security infrastructure for the AI era that runs continuous testing against our customers&#8217; environments to prove exploitability the moment it appears, closing the gap that AI-powered adversaries are racing to widen. Joining WWT&#8217;s \u2018Defending at the Speed of AI\u2019 initiative puts that capability&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.businesswire.com\/news\/home\/20260616500138\/en\/World-Wide-Technology-Launches-Defending-at-the-Speed-of-AI-Initiative-with-Horizon3.ai-Empirical-Security-Infoblox-and-Cognition\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>World Wide Technology Launches \u2018Defending at the Speed of AI\u2019 Initiative with Horizon3.ai, Empirical Security,&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":274465,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/mms.businesswire.com\/media\/20260616500138\/en\/1152876\/22\/WWT_Logo_RGB_Color.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[31,25,57],"class_list":["post-274464","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-technology","tag-exploit","tag-phishing","tag-security"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/274464"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=274464"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/274464\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":274467,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/274464\/revisions\/274467"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/274465"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=274464"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=274464"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=274464"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
