How Much Cyber Risk Does AI Create for Organizations? 457 Million Security Issues. Here's What You Can Do About It.
Tenable, Wednesday, June 24th, 2026
Tenable found 457 million AI-related security issues across organizations, urging exposure management over CVE-only patching.
Tenable detected 457 million AI-related security issues across organizations over 30 days, averaging about 62,000 exposures per company. The report stresses that non-CVE threats like misconfigurations and credential exposure cause two-thirds of breach entry points despite being only a third of findings.
It argues that traditional vulnerability management focused solely on patched CVEs is inadequate.
Tenable recommends AI-driven exposure management to map attack paths and prioritize remediation across hybrid infrastructure, including shadow AI deployments.
