• Project Glasswing includes companies like Amazon Web Services, Apple, Broadcom, Cisco, CrowdStrike, Google, Microsoft, and NVIDIA, among other top tech companies.

U.S. tech giant IBM (IBM) has joined ‘Project Glasswing’ – an Anthropic-led initiative to safeguard critical software systems and infrastructure against AI-powered cybersecurity threats.

As the latest member of Project Glasswing, IBM said it has been identifying and remediating vulnerabilities in software predominantly used across the industry and sharing its findings with the broader community.

IBM said it will leverage its deep expertise in security and defense to stymie attackers' attempts to exploit weaknesses.

“As part of Project Glasswing, we've been hardening our own products and contributing fixes back to the open-source community. The collaboration makes the entire ecosystem stronger," said Rob Thomas, SVP Software & Chief Commercial Officer, IBM.

Project Glasswing

In early April, Anthropic partnered with tech industry behemoths, whose services underpin business operations worldwide, and granted them access to “Claude Mythos Preview” for defensive security work. Claude Mythos Preview is the AI company’s newest frontier model, designed to identify flaws and vulnerabilities in software code.

Anthropic said it would share its findings for the benefit of the entire industry, and its altruistic initiative brought together the likes of Amazon Web Services (AMZN), Apple (AAPL), Broadcom (AVGO), Cisco (CSCO), CrowdStrike (CRW), Google (GOOG, GOOGL), JPMorganChase (JPM), the Linux Foundation, Microsoft (MSFT), NVIDIA (NVDA), and Palo Alto Networks (PANW) as launch partners.

“No single organization can do this alone: frontier AI developers, software companies, security researchers, open-source maintainers, and governments all have essential roles to play,” Anthropic had then said.
