As part of the ongoing story, microsoft just unveiled via a Windows Experience blog post that the publisher is now using AI to identify potential security issues in Windows earlier in the development process.
The report highlights that according to the publisher, this will result in a greater number of security updates included in each month’s security drop, also known as “Patch Tuesdays.” The story was first reported by The Verge.
Industry observers note that this sudden spike in AI-driven exploits and security has contributed to serious security flaws being detected more quickly and more frequently. The context for this is that both security researchers and cybercriminals are increasingly using AI to find and exploit vulnerabilities in all kinds of programs, including operating systems like Windows.
According to the latest update, as part of this change, Microsoft is also updating its secure programs development model to better account for AI-driven attack methods.
Industry observers note that humans will continue to review code, verify AI findings, and make decisions on which security updates to deploy. At the same time, Microsoft emphasizes that AI won’t replace its developers.
