Recorded Future Announces Automated Signature Creation, Accelerating Vulnerability Prioritization

Recorded Future launched Automated Signature Creation in ASI, turning new CVEs into deployable detection signatures in as little as 31 minutes.

Recorded Future announced Automated Signature Creation within its Attack Surface Intelligence product, autonomously generating production-ready detection signatures for newly surfaced vulnerabilities in as little as 31 minutes. The platform correlates an organization's internet-facing assets, live threat activity (malware, ransomware, actor intent), and vulnerability intelligence to prioritize which CVEs warrant detection. The company reports a tenfold increase in in-platform signatures and maps the capability to the four prioritization criteria in CISA's June 2026 directive on risk-based vulnerability mitigation.

F5 speeds up virtual patching to counter AI-driven threats

F5 added anomaly detection and agentic threat intelligence to its AI-powered WAF, enabling virtual patch enforcement against exploits within minutes.

F5 announced enhancements to F5 WAF for Distributed Cloud, adding anomaly detection that builds per-application traffic baselines and agentic threat intelligence built on technology from the Fletch acquisition. The AI-powered WAF scores each request in real time with a neural network risk engine, and internal testing claims 98% threat detection efficacy with false positives reduced to 1%. Automated virtual patching via Distributed Cloud Web App Scanning extends to F5 WAF for BIG-IP, letting teams block actively exploited vulnerabilities at the request level in minutes; agentic features are rolling out over coming months.

Searchlight Cyber combines exposure and threat intelligence in new PTEM platform

Searchlight Cyber launched its PTEM platform, merging exposure management from Assetnote with dark web threat intelligence to prioritize likely-exploited exposures.

Searchlight Cyber launched its Preemptive Threat Exposure Management (PTEM) platform, unifying Searchlight Exposure (formerly Assetnote) with Searchlight Threat, which consolidates the Cerberus investigations platform and DarkIQ dark web monitoring. The platform pairs continuous attack surface discovery and exploitability validation with attacker intelligence from the open, deep and dark web to help teams prioritize the exposures most likely to be exploited. The launch follows the 2025 Assetnote acquisition and a new corporate identity, and cites a Gartner forecast that preemptive security will reach 50% of IT security spending by 2030.
