AI-driven platforms like Mythos are accelerating the speed and scale of vulnerability, discovery and exploitation. For federal agencies managing complex environments, this influx makes prioritization harder, highlighting the critical need to distinguish theoretical flaws from real mission risk.

Join Horizon3 and Carahsoft for a discussion on shifting from traditional vulnerability management toward continuous validation of exploitability, attack paths and operational resilience.

Attendees will learn:

Mythos' impact on federal cybersecurity programs
How AI accelerates vulnerability discovery and exploitation
Why vulnerability counts and severity scores fail to represent mission risk
How attackers chain vulnerabilities, identities and misconfigurations
Why exploitability validation is critical for prioritization and decision making
How continuous security validation supports Zero Trust and cyber resilience

As vulnerability explosion discovery accelerates, agencies must move beyond measuring findings to continuously verifying defenses, validating what attackers can actually exploit and prioritizing based on real-world risk. CISA's Binding Operational Directive (BOD) 26-04 represents an important evolution in how federal agencies approach vulnerability remediation.
