From CVE Disclosure to Agentic Protection in 45 Minutes. Why it Matters Now.   

The report warns that vulnerability exploitation is now the leading initial access vector (31% per the 2026 Verizon DBIR), remediation is lagging (median time-to-patch 43 days; only 26% of KEVs remediated), and rising CVE volume plus AI-driven automation are accelerating weaponization—arguing that reducing time-to-protection (via Cato's Agentic CVE Mitigation delivering protections in under an hour) is now the key defense metric.
