Frontier AI Cybersecurity Observatory
A cybersecurity observatory of benchmarks measuring how well AI agents handle real-world vulnerabilities, from discovering and reproducing them to developing working exploits or patches.
AI is evolving at an unprecedented pace, making it increasingly difficult to anticipate its societal impacts and risks. Recent benchmarks show that AI agents can already take on real-world cybersecurity tasks, including discovering and exploiting zero-day vulnerabilities. In cybersecurity, AI plays a dual role, strengthening both offensive and defensive capabilities. To help the broader community understand and prepare for these rapidly evolving capabilities, we have built the Frontier AI Cybersecurity Observatory to continuously and openly track AI’s cybersecurity capabilities across the…
