Mandiant's M-Trends 2026 report found that AI is accelerating both attackers and defenders, with 28.3% of disclosed CVEs now exploited within 24 hours of disclosure. The average time to remediate a known high or critical CVE has stretched to 74 days, widening the exposure gap.

Key Points
28.3% of CVEs exploited within 24 hours of disclosure
Average remediation time: 74 days for high/critical CVEs
Exploits routinely arrive before patches
Why It Matters
When attack speed exceeds patch speed by orders of magnitude, defensive automation stops being a 'nice to have' and becomes a survival requirement.
