Hexaware Technologies has introduced 'Zero Vulnerability,' an AI-led cybersecurity offering designed to bridge the gap between rapid AI-driven vulnerability discovery and the finite capacity of enterprises to fix them.
- AI is accelerating the discovery of cyber vulnerabilities at an unprecedented rate.
- Only 26% of critical known-exploited vulnerabilities were remediated last year, per Verizon.
- Hexaware’s solution uses Zerovity™ to automate and verify fixes.
- The platform integrates with existing security tools rather than replacing them.
MUMBAI, India: Hexaware Technologies (NSE: HEXT), a leading AI-first digital and IT services company, has announced the launch of 'Zero Vulnerability.' This new cybersecurity offering addresses a critical industry crisis: while Artificial Intelligence is helping vulnerabilities surface faster than ever, enterprise security and engineering teams are struggling with finite capacity to investigate and remediate them.
The urgency of this solution is underscored by the Verizon 2026 Data Breach Investigations Report. The report highlights a concerning trend: only 26% of critical Known-Exploited Vulnerabilities were fully remediated last year, a significant drop from 38% in the previous period. Furthermore, the median time to resolve these vulnerabilities has climbed from 32 to 43 days. Most alarmingly, 99% of vulnerabilities discovered by AI remain unremediated, creating a massive window of opportunity for attackers.
Why This Matters
BozokMedia analysis shows that the current cybersecurity landscape is witnessing an 'arms race' where AI-driven exploitation is outpacing human-led remediation. As enterprises adopt more complex SaaS and PaaS environments, the attack surface expands. Hexaware’s intervention is crucial because it shifts the focus from merely 'detecting' threats to 'verifying' their removal in live production environments.
"Our objective is simple: make risk fall faster than new findings arrive." - Mohit Vaish, EVP & Business Head – Cybersecurity, Hexaware.
Delivered through Zerovity™, Hexaware's AI-led delivery layer, the Zero Vulnerability offering provides a comprehensive lifecycle management system. It handles everything from ingestion and validation to prioritization, routing, fixing, and final verification. This ensures that a vulnerability is not just marked as 'closed' in a dashboard, but is actually purged from the production codebase.
Historical Background
Historically, cybersecurity relied on reactive measures—patching systems after a breach occurred. However, the transition to cloud-native architectures and the advent of generative AI have shifted the threat landscape toward proactive, continuous exposure management. The speed of modern exploits now necessitates an automated, AI-driven response.
