Business impact

CISOs should track the average window of exposure to prioritize critical vulnerabilities, reducing the risk of exploitation. This helps in managing the increased volume of AI-discovered issues more effectively.

Users affected

Organizations and their users are affected by the need to manage a larger number of vulnerabilities, particularly those that are high severity or worse, as identified by AI tools.
