Preparing our next security sprint to harden OpenAI

OpenAI
OpenAI plans a new internal security sprint with Cathedral, quadruples bug bounty rewards, and commits $1 billion to help defenders.

Summary

OpenAI is planning its next internal security sprint, partnering with Cathedral researchers who will use OpenAI models to challenge and strengthen its defenses, while also expanding its Security Bug Bounty program with more than quadruple rewards for critical findings. Building on a previous sprint where 25% of product engineers used Codex to find and fix vulnerabilities, OpenAI notes that traditional cyber defenses are insufficient and emphasizes continuous defensive loops. It is making frontier cyber capabilities available to Daybreak customers, committing $1 billion in subsidized access over six months for frontline defenders, and sharing its architecture and lessons along with a blueprint for empowering cyber defenders across industry and government. OpenAI stresses that keeping the defender's window open requires industry-wide action starting now.
