Your backlog of low and medium severity vulnerabilities just became a real threat. AI can now chain them into critical exploits, and the window between exploit discovery and active use is around eight hours. Curtis Koenig, Head of Application Security at Gen, joins the show to explain why treating AI agents like human users is the single most important step security teams can take this year. CHAPTERS.
