OpenAI expands security testing with help from external experts
OpenAI will let outside researchers test its models and raise bug bounty rewards to as much as $172,000 for critical findings.
- OpenAI partnered with cybersecurity firm Cathedral Systems to strengthen its AI-powered defenses, bringing external researchers into its next internal security sprint.
- This initiative builds on a previous internal security sprint where 25 percent of OpenAI's product engineers used Codex to identify vulnerabilities and prepare patches. The company aims to address emerging threats that traditional cybersecurity measures cannot stop.
- Alongside the partnership, OpenAI is expanding its Security Bug Bounty program, with exceptional findings now eligible for rewards of up to $172,000, including bonuses, to encourage external researchers to report security gaps.
- Cathedral CEO Gavin Kliger said the partnership combines AI capabilities with external expertise, adding, "OpenAI is setting an important example by partnering with outside security firms and using its own models to continuously test and strengthen its defenses."
- Separately, OpenAI is extending access to its advanced cybersecurity models through the Daybreak initiative, committing $1 billion in subsidized access over six months to support organizations protecting essential services and digital infrastructure.
