Over the past few weeks, we have reached a critical turning point in cybersecurity. Following the launch of our Frontier AI Defense initiative, we’ve continued testing the latest frontier models (including Anthropic’s Mythos and Claude Opus 4.7, as well as OpenAI’s GPT-5.5-Cyber) as part of the Trusted Access for Cyber program.
The urgency to innovate continues to ramp up. As Lee Klarich recently detailed in his Defender's Guide to the Frontier AI Impact on Cybersecurity, our current landscape is defined by a brief three-to-five-month window to gain a strategic advantage over attackers. To outsmart AI-based exploits, enterprises must decisively address vulnerabilities across their code and stand up the right security stack to enable real-time, automated defenses.
With such a ticking clock in front of us, acting rapidly and at-scale to support our customers is paramount. Today, we exponentially grow our scale of delivery by expanding our Frontier AI Alliance.
Since introducing this initiative, our collaboration with initial partners – Accenture, Deloitte, IBM, NTT DATA, and PwC – has already begun changing the defensive math for our customers. This is a moment that calls for radical collaboration across the entire security ecosystem, so today we are proud to welcome a new cohort of strategic partners – Cognizant, HCLTech, Kyndryl, TCS, Infosys, McKinsey & Company, Orange Cyberdefense, and Wipro – to join us in delivering AI readiness at scale.
While this expansion significantly increases our reach, this is only the beginning. We are committed to a continuous evolution of this alliance and will be adding more critical partners in the future across the globe to ensure our customers have the most robust defense network possible.
By combining our technology with these partners’ deep consulting expertise, we are delivering:
- Machine-Speed Security: Natively integrating Frontier AI to provide real-time, automated defense against autonomous threats.
- Intelligence-Led Resilience: Leveraging Unit 42® experts to fast-track the discovery and remediation of exposures at machine speed.
- Hardened Defenses: Utilizing early access to frontier models from partners like OpenAI and Anthropic to simulate and block attack chains before they hit the mainstream.
The stakes are high. The attack cycle has compressed with the time from initial access to data exfiltration collapsing to just 39 seconds. Machine-speed MTTR (mean time to respond) is no longer an ambitious goal, it is a requirement.
This initiative underscores our commitment to providing every client with integrated, real-time protection.
