Cyberattacks are no longer manual, linear operations. With AI now embedded into offensive strategies, attackers are developing polymorphic malware, automating reconnaissance, and bypassing defenses faster than many security teams can respond. This is not a future scenario, it’s happening now.
At the same time, most security defenses are still reactive. They rely on identifying known indicators of compromise, applying historical attack patterns, and flagging risks based on severity scores that may not reflect the true threat landscape. Teams are overwhelmed by volume, not insight, creating a perfect environment for attackers to succeed.
The industry’s legacy mindset built around compliance checklists, periodic assessments, and fragmented tooling has become a liability. Security teams are working harder than ever, yet often fixing the wrong things.
Why This Gap Exists
The cybersecurity industry has long leaned on risk scores like CVSS to prioritize vulnerabilities. However, CVSS scores don’t reflect the real-world context of an organization’s infrastructure such as whether a vulnerability is exposed, reachable, or exploitable within a known attack path.
As a result, security…
