What Anthropic Glasswing reveals about the future of vulnerability discovery
From backlog management to exposure-window risk: The issue, as Williams frames it, is not simply how many vulnerabilities exist, but how they are managed. “Mythos makes one thing painfully clear,” he says. “This is not a prioritization problem. It’s an exposure-window problem.”Traditional vulnerability management has been built around prioritization, ranking issues by severity, exploitability, and…
