OpenAI announced Defense Factory, a new continuous defense concept.

"Defender's window" is the gap between the cyber capabilities of open-weight models and the current security level.

Without continuous defense practices that rely on frontier models, this gap will close, enabling malicious actors to freely abuse vulnerable systems.

"Agents can now conduct long-running cyber operations by abusing increasingly available open-weight models. In response, at OpenAI we’re building a Defense Factory. An automated defense operation to find, validate, and fix vulnerabilities continuously."

"Defenders have two structural advantages. They can give agents direct access to their code and use frontier models to get a head start over attackers abusing broadly available open-weight models."
