Impart uses AI to build virtual patches without putting models in the traffic path

Impart Security launched the Runtime Defense Harness, a controlled environment in which AI agents write and test virtual patches for new vulnerabilities while the enforced patch runs as deterministic code outside the traffic path.

The launch targets a gap in which exploits increasingly outpace fixes.
