Radware, a global leader in application security and delivery solutions for multicloud environments, announced AI Xploit Shield, a new service that quickly protects an organization’s applications and APIs from exploitation of newly discovered vulnerabilities.
Organizations face increasing challenges as new frontier AI models like Anthropic’s Mythos accelerate vulnerability discovery. This means that the amount of newly discovered vulnerabilities is accelerating dramatically, while the time between vulnerability identification and exploitation is shrinking.
These trends widen the gap between discovery and remediation, making it increasingly difficult for organizations to respond to emerging threats.
Patching remains essential, but testing requirements, legacy systems, concerns about operational downtime after software upgrades, and third-party dependencies can delay remediation and leave organizations at risk in the gap between vulnerability discovery and patch deployment. AI Xploit Shield bridges that gap by automatically generating protection tailored to each organization’s applications, APIs, exposures, and environment. These protections provided through virtual patching help block exploit attempts without changing the underlying applications or software. Unlike traditional virtual patching approaches that rely on generic signatures and manually created rules, AI Xploit Shield leverages AI models to generate, test, and deploy tailored protection at scale and in near real-time.
Radware AI Xploit Shield is designed to:
- Enable the automatic generation and deployment of customer-specific shields at scale against newly discovered vulnerabilities.
- Rapidly protect web applications and APIs during software patch testing and deployment.
- Reduce operational risk by giving security teams time to validate and deploy fixes without rushing into emergency operational changes.
- Deliver consistent protection across cloud, hybrid, and on-premises environments.
AI Xploit Shield extends Radware’s AI-powered cloud security platform. Radware’s cloud security platform leverages AI to protect web applications and APIs and provides security for AI agents and AI-powered applications. AI Xploit Shield is purpose-built to protect web applications and APIs from exploitation of newly discovered vulnerabilities, helping organizations reduce the risk of exploitation while remediation efforts are underway.

The challenge is no longer simply finding vulnerabilities. Protect your applications before these vulnerabilities are exploited. Organizations cannot rely solely on patching. You need a way to quickly translate vulnerability intelligence into protection while remediation efforts are underway.
