Mythos Didn't Break Your Security Program. Your Exposure Window Could.

The real security problem isn't the volume of new vulnerabilities discovered by AI tools like Mythos, but rather the exposure window—the time between when a vulnerability becomes exploitable and when an organization fixes it. Currently, attackers can break into systems in 29 minutes on average, but organizations are allowed 30 days to patch critical vulnerabilities, creating a massive gap. The bottleneck isn't discovering vulnerabilities quickly (which AI now does), but mobilization—the organizational process of actually deploying fixes across different teams and systems, which still moves at human speed rather than at the speed attackers operate.
