Vulnerabilities

Microsoft says the patching window is shrinking fast. Here is what that means for ordinary people.

Software flaws are being turned into working attacks within hours of being made public. Microsoft says companies can no longer patch their way out fast enough, and is pushing a network-level defensive layer to buy time.

AI Arms Race: Why Smart CISOs Are Choosing Their Battles, Not Fighting All of Them

Attackers are using AI to move faster, employees are leaking sensitive data into consumer tools without realising it, and the window to fix vulnerabilities before criminals exploit them is shrinking. Here is what security leaders should actually prioritise.
