Agentic Runtime Security: When Patching Can’t Keep Up.

Anthropic’s Project Glasswing demonstrates that AI can discover thousands of high- and critical-severity vulnerabilities far faster than vendors can verify and patch, creating an "unfixable gap" where exploitation frequently precedes patches; the report cites concrete examples (including a wolfSSL exploit), quantifies scale and patching delays, and argues defenders must adopt Agentic Runtime Security—behavioral detection, cross-surface forensic depth, and AI-assisted containment across cloud, SaaS, identity, and AI—to mitigate attacks that operate faster than remediation.
