In recent conversations, cybersecurity and national security professionals raised questions about both the technical solutions OpenAI and Anthropic use to contain their models, as well as the glaring absence of federal oversight from federal regulators or truly independent third-party review.

While large language models present real risks to society, experts say they can be tested and largely controlled using well-worn cybersecurity and policy choices.
The report details a Russian-aligned espionage campaign against more than 20 organizations, an exploit foundry run by Chinese undergraduates and ShinyHunters-affiliated breaches, among other disrupted operations.
OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Microsoft, and others say there’s a narrow “defenders’ window” to strengthen security before AI-powered attacks become more sophisticated.

The designation would unlock a range of federal services, tools and resources for an industry that policymakers view as increasingly tied to national and economic security.

As frontier models and their sandbox escaping exploits dominate front-page news, researchers are increasingly worried about cheaper, more efficient AI models.
Research finds your AI generated security patch is more likely to fail than fully fix a vulnerability. It might even introduce brand new flaws to exploit along…
Following similar reports by OpenAI and Anthropic, the UK’s top AI testing lab and a private cybersecurity tester say their models exploited parts of the open internet.
