Visa Expands Support for its Clients and the Industry as Organizations Navigate New AI Era of Cybersecurity

SAN FRANCISCO — Visa (NYSE: V) today announced enhancements to its cybersecurity portfolio to help organizations identify and fix vulnerabilities more effectively. Unveiling the next evolution of the Visa Vulnerability Agentic Harness (VVAH), its open-source, model-agnostic framework, Visa is helping organizations significantly reduce the Mean Time to Adapt (MTTA), the time between discovery and resolution of attack paths, with some resolutions shrinking from weeks to hours.

And to help clients navigate this evolving threat landscape, Visa also announced the expansion of its Visa Consulting & Analytics (VCA) Cybersecurity Advisory Practice with new advisory services designed to help clients assess risk, prioritize remediation efforts and strengthen resilience in an evolving threat environment.

“AI is compressing the time between vulnerability discovery and exploitation, which means defenders need a faster, more reliable path to action,” said Rajat Taneja, President, Technology, Visa . “By advancing VVAH and expanding our cybersecurity advisory capabilities, we’re helping organizations move from insight to validated remediation while strengthening resilience in an increasingly AI-driven threat landscape.”

Originally released following Visa’s participation in Anthropic’s frontier AI cybersecurity initiative, Project Glasswing, VVAH demonstrated how AI can help security teams uncover vulnerabilities, assess exploitability and generate structured findings. The latest release extends that workflow beyond discovery into remediation and validation.

The framework is designed to help organizations discover, triage, remediate and validate vulnerabilities within a single structured workflow.

To help organizations operationalize those insights, Visa Consulting & Analytics is introducing three new cybersecurity advisory services informed by Visa’s experience in AI-powered security:

“Finding vulnerabilities is no longer the hardest part. Speed to remediation is the new battleground. When AI-enabled attackers move faster and probe at scale, companies need AI-powered defenses,” said Carl Rutstein, global head of Visa Consulting & Analytics . “Our enhanced cybersecurity advisory services combine insights from implementing frontier AI models for cybersecurity, VVAH, and decades of payments expertise to help clients prioritize risk areas, act quickly and build sustainable cyber resilience.”

Over the past year, Visa Consulting & Analytics’ Cybersecurity Advisory Practice has supported clients across a range of cybersecurity advisory engagements intended to help clients evaluate cybersecurity maturity, assess areas of cyber risk, and identify potential priorities for strengthening risk management and operational resilience.
