Proactive Defense: The UK’s Vulnerability Research Initiative as AI Security Blueprint
The UK’s National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) established the Vulnerability Research Initiative (VRI) to expand vulnerability discovery, including plans to target AI-powered weaknesses. Recognizing the limitations of their internal team, NCSC will collaborate with third-party researchers to investigate both common and specialized tech vulnerabilities. The program will coordinate expert efforts, share findings with industry, and aim to proactively identify and mitigate risks before they’re exploited—particularly those tied to AI modules and supply-chain components.
