I was just told that we have 24 hours to reduce our count of critical CVEs to zero across every single server running on our network or in our cloud environments, company-wide. They don't care if the attack surface isn't exposed. They don't care if the code wasn't updated because the last update broke something. No exceptions. Drop everything else and only work on vulnerabilities, no matter what other deadlines might be missed. We're fucked. Someone's gonna get fired over this mess. All because the CIO fell for a goddamn AI marketing stunt.
