U.S. government cuts deadline to 3 days for most critical cyber flaws amid AI attacks
The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency has issued new guidance requiring federal agencies to address the most severe vulnerabilities within as little as three days. The policy shifts vulnerability management from a uniform approach to risk-based prioritisation, focusing first on flaws with high likelihood of exploitation and large potential impact. CISA said only 1 percent of vulnerabilities would fall under the three-day rule, while lower-risk issues could follow regular patch cycles.

Hackers are using AI to find software vulnerabilities, sharply cutting the time defenders have to respond, Verizon said in its annual data breach investigations report. Reuters reported that exploiting software vulnerabilities overtook credential theft as the top cause of breaches for the first time. Verizon said 31 percent of breaches it analyzed began with vulnerability exploitation. The report also flagged employee use of unapproved “shadow AI” as a growing non-malicious insider issue.

Rocket Lab, AST SpaceMobile and Intuitive Machines are cited as key comparables, with investors watching what figures appear in SpaceX’s S-1 filing.
