What happened
Equifax's CISO Jeremy Koppen and other security leaders describe shifting strategies for 2027, including removing static credentials, automating routine SOC tasks and using organisation-specific risk ratings rather than vendor severity scores. Verizon's 2026 DBIR puts the median time to remediate known exploited vulnerabilities at 43 days, up from 32 days in 2025, and the article argues continuous patching is now the goal.

What to do
- Review whether static passwords can be replaced with passwordless authentication for staff and customers.
- Apply the same identity verification controls to AI agents and automated workflows as to human users.
- Reassess vulnerability prioritisation using asset context such as data sensitivity and exposure rather than vendor severity alone.
