2 Minute Drill: AI has now Hacked the Un-hackable with Drex DeFord
The window between vulnerability discovery and exploitation has collapsed — from 63 days in 2018 to negative. Now AI is changing the game entirely. Drex walks through how Anthropic's unreleased model Mythos autonomously found a critical zero-day in the Ghost CMS, wrote its own exploit, and extracted sensitive credentials in under two hours — all without a CVE ever existing. Add in two accidental Anthropic data leaks in the same week, and the story gets more complicated. For healthcare organizations, the takeaway is urgent: your patch program was built for a world that no longer exists. Continuous vulnerability discovery, identity security, network segmentation, and board-level conversations about AI-powered attack speed aren't future priorities — they're today's baseline.Remember, Stay a Little Paranoid X: This Week Health LinkedIn: This Week Health Donate: Alex’s Lemonade Stand: Foundation for Childhood Cancer
