OpenAI Launches Daybreak AI Cybersecurity Initiative

OpenAI has unveiled Daybreak, an AI-driven cybersecurity initiative designed to detect and patch vulnerabilities before attackers can exploit them. The platform leverages the Codex Security AI agent, which launched in March. Daybreak builds threat models based on an organization's code, identifies potential attack paths, validates likely vulnerabilities, and automates detection of the highest-risk issues. The initiative appears to be OpenAI's direct response to competing AI security offerings.
