Over the coming weeks, OpenAI intends to work with industry and government partners as the company prepares to deploy increasingly cyber-capable models.
OpenAI is set to launch Daybreak, an AI initiative designed to identify and patch software vulnerabilities before attackers have the opportunity to exploit them. Using the Codex Security AI agent that first launched in March, Daybreak creates a threat model developed using an organisation’s code and concentrates on potential attack paths and vulnerabilities.
Over the course of the coming weeks, OpenAI intends to work with industry and government partners as the company prepares to deploy increasingly cyber-capable models as part of an approach to iterative deployment.
In a statement, OpenAI noted: “It starts from the premise that the next era of cyber defence should be built into software from the beginning by not only finding and patching vulnerabilities, but being resilient to them by design.”
Commenting on social media platform X, CEO Sam Altman said, “OpenAI is launching Daybreak, our effort to accelerate cyber defence and continuously secure software. AI is already good and about to get super good at cybersecurity; we’d like to start working with as many companies as possible now to help them continuously secure themselves.”
