It allows security professionals to analyze compiled software for malware and vulnerabilities without source code access. Alongside the model, OpenAI is expanding its Trusted Access for Cyber (TAC) framework to thousands of verified individual defenders and hundreds of critical-defense teams, aiming to make AI-powered defensive tools widely accessible while keeping them out of malicious hands. The announcement follows Anthropic's own cybersecurity-focused releases. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
