OpenAI has shared a list of pioneers participating in Trusted for Cyber, a programme to protect digital infrastructure that will help the company learn from real-world use, improve safety systems, and make advanced defensive capabilities across the ecosystem.
"The strength of this approach comes from the breadth of defenders involved," OpenAI said in a statement.
"Cybersecurity is a team sport, and the systems people rely on are protected by organisations of many kinds, from major enterprises and security vendors to researchers, maintainers, public institutions, nonprofits, and smaller teams with limited security resources."
Trusted for Cyber defenders that have already signed up include Bank of America, BlackRock, BNY, Citi, Cisco, CrowdStrike, Goldman Sachs, iVerify, JPMorgan Chase, Morgan Stanley, NVIDIA, Oracle, SpecterOps, and Zscaler.
On a related note, OpenAI has committed US$10 M in application programming interface (API) credits through its Cybersecurity Grant Program. Teams are welcome to apply for a grant if they have a proven track record of identifying and remediating vulnerabilities in open source software and critical infrastructure systems.
Initial grant recipients include Socket and Semgrep, which focus on software supply chain security, as well as Calif and Trail of Bits, which pair frontier models with vulnerability research experts.
Codex Security, OpenAI's application security agent, was introduced in March 2026. It is designed to identify complex vulnerabilities that other agentic tools might miss, "surfacing higher-confidence findings with fixes that meaningfully improve the security of your system while sparing you from the noise of insignificant bugs", OpenAI said.
The company has also finetuned its models to enable defensive cybersecurity use cases. The first model available is a variant of GPT‑5.4 trained to be cyber-permissive, GPT‑5.4‑Cyber.Details
