TrendAI\u2122 has launched \u00c6SIR, an AI-empowered security research platform that combines advanced automation with human expertise to proactively identify and remediate zero-day vulnerabilities in foundational AI infrastructure. Since mid-2025, \u00c6SIR has uncovered 21 critical CVEs across industry-leading platforms including NVIDIA, Tencent, MLflow, and MCP tooling, which underscores \u00c6SIR\u2019s ability to operate at the scale and speed required to protect the rapidly evolving AI ecosystem.<\/p>\n

The platform leverages two core components: MIMIR for real-time threat intelligence and FENRIR for zero-day vulnerability discovery. Together, these enable TrendAI to scan massive codebases in hours, prioritize the highest-impact vulnerabilities, and ensure robust, continuous protection for customers. Powered by \u00c6SIR, TrendAI\u2019s responsible disclosure process sees to it that all vulnerabilities are not only reported but also fully remediated, including patch bypass verification, to further strengthen customers’ defenses.<\/p>\n

\u00c6SIR closes the gap between the speed of AI development and the pace of security research: By combining machine-speed automation with our researchers\u2019 expert oversight, it helps TrendAI experts deliver rapid, high-quality vulnerability discovery and lifecycle management for critical AI infrastructure.<\/p>\n

Every step involves human direction of \u00c6SIR’s AI resources: While AI agents accelerate codebase analysis, human experts direct research, validate \u00c6SIR findings, and manage disclosure of discovered vulnerabilities: Researchers investigate issues flagged by \u00c6SIR, assess their real-world impact, and drive responsible vendor coordination. This way, patch effectiveness is verified by both AI and human analysis to ensure full remediation and identify any bypasses.<\/p>\n
