OpenAI has debuted a new AI model geared towards helping cybersecurity professionals. The company says that the new model, called GPT-6 Cyber, outperforms its general-purpose GPT-6 Astra model on most cyber tasks. Because of the risk that the model could be used to conduct cyberattacks if it fell into the wrong hands, OpenAI is current making the model available only to a small handful approved security customers. Fortune first reported that OpenAI was planning to release a specialized cyber model based on GPT-6 in September. As AI models have become better at finding software flaws and turning them into working attacks, businesses have come under increasing pressure to strengthen their cyber defenses. Gartner forecast in September that worldwide AI cybersecurity spending would reach $51.3 billion this year, nearly double last year’s $25.9 billion. OpenAI is increasingly leaning into this market, seeing it as an important path to growing its enterprise sales. This is OpenAI’s fourth cybersecurity-focused model this year, following versions released in April, June and August. The company also hired a chief revenue officer, Dali Rajic, who comes from a cybersecurity software background.
