CERT-In Sets 12-Hour Patch Window for Critical AI Security Flaws

India's CERT-In has released updated cybersecurity guidelines specifically addressing artificial intelligence systems. The new directive mandates that organizations patch critical vulnerabilities within 12 hours of discovery. These guidelines aim to strengthen the security posture of AI-based systems deployed across Indian organizations. The move reflects growing concerns about AI vulnerabilities and the rapid exploitation timeline attackers employ. Organizations handling sensitive data or critical infrastructure must comply with these stricter timelines. CERT-In emphasizes that AI systems require enhanced monitoring and faster incident response protocols. The guidelines provide a framework for vulnerability assessment, reporting, and remediation specific to AI environments. Source: The Indian Express.
