The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to automatically discover vulnerabilities in code is becoming increasingly prevalent, with researchers developing new methods to effectively scan source code and find zero-days in the wild. Companies like ZeroPath are combining deep program analysis with adversarial AI agents to uncover critical vulnerabilities, often in production systems, that traditional security tools struggle to detect. While AI-based vulnerability discovery is still in its early stages, its potential to enhance security measures is undeniable. This development could significantly improve the effectiveness of security testing and lead to the identification of vulnerabilities earlier in the development cycle, reducing the risk of exploitation.
