A Discord-affiliated group accessed Mythos, an AI-powered security defense system, on its launch day in February using insider access and web-scouring bots. The breach exposes a critical industry problem: AI discovers vulnerabilities far faster than organizations can remediate them, shrinking patch windows from days to hours. The Cloud Security Alliance warns this demands entirely new security playbooks and prioritization frameworks.
