Gate News message, April 22 — Chinese cybersecurity company 360 Digital Security Group has developed an AI-driven Vulnerability Discovery Agent that has identified nearly 1,000 previously unknown software vulnerabilities in recent months, according to a report by Eugenio Benincasa, a senior researcher at ETH Zurich’s Security Research Center, as cited by Bloomberg. The discovered vulnerabilities affect products including Microsoft Office and OpenClaw, an open-source AI agent framework.
360 stated that AI has “evolved from an auxiliary tool to the core engine of vulnerability discovery.” Earlier this year, the company also announced development of an AI tool designed to accelerate the construction of exploit chains—the prerequisite conditions for compromising target computers.
Benincasa characterized 360 as positioning itself as a direct competitor to Anthropic’s Mythos. The report was compiled by Natto Thoughts, a research firm specializing in Chinese cybersecurity developments, based on a review of 360’s recent Chinese-language announcements.
