As artificial intelligence is rapidly adopted in cybersecurity, security patching practices across the tech industry are changing, with patch releases growing faster and larger than before. Microsoft rolled out its biggest-ever security patch after using AI to detect code vulnerabilities. The United States introduced a new coordination framework called Gold Eagle to speed detection, prioritisation and patching for critical infrastructure. Companies also launched AI-native security platforms, initiatives and services across cloud, operations and vulnerability testing.

South Korea’s National Assembly Science, ICT, Broadcasting and Communications Committee has selected AI infrastructure as its first joint policy agenda for the second half of the 22nd parliament. The panel aims to identify legislative and institutional tasks to support the government’s three mega-projects. At a forum in Seoul, participating companies called for faster permits, expanded tax support, a dedicated organisation and regulatory streamlining. The government said it would review industry requests through inter-ministerial and public-private frameworks.
