Bishop Fox Joins OpenAI Daybreak Defense Network to Bring Advanced Cyber AI Capabilities to Customers

Bishop Fox integrates OpenAI GPT Cyber Models into offensive security through the OpenAI Daybreak Defense Network.

TEMPE, AZ, UNITED STATES, November 10, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Bishop Fox, a leading provider of offensive security services, today announced that it has joined the OpenAI Daybreak Defense Network and will participate in OpenAI’s Trusted Access for Cyber program, with access to both Daybreak Blue and Daybreak Red. As one of a select group of companies granted access to these advanced cyber models for use in customer engagements, Bishop Fox plans to integrate OpenAI GPT Cyber Models into its offensive security services and Cosmos platform, helping customers uncover critical vulnerabilities, investigate complex attack paths, and strengthen their defenses without having to build or manage the technology themselves.

“The real opportunity with AI isn’t just finding vulnerabilities faster. It’s uncovering risks that were previously difficult to detect and helping organizations address them before attackers can exploit them,” said Vinnie Liu, CEO and co-founder of Bishop Fox. “The OpenAI Daybreak Defense Network gives us access to advanced cyber capabilities that aren’t broadly available, and we’re bringing those capabilities to our customers. By integrating these models with our 21+ years of offensive security expertise, we can help organizations uncover meaningful vulnerabilities, better understand their exposure, and stay ahead of evolving threats, without having to build these capabilities themselves.”

BRINGING ADVANCED CYBER AI INTO OFFENSIVE SECURITY

Building on its existing AI-powered testing capabilities, Bishop Fox integrated OpenAI GPT Cyber Models across four key areas:

– Agentic Penetration Testing: Expanding vulnerability discovery, investigating attack paths, and assessing exploitability across customer-authorized environments.

– Agentic Red Teaming: Supporting realistic adversarial simulations to help organizations evaluate defensive controls and understand the nature of what an agentic attack will be like.

– AI-Powered Application Security: Identifying and triaging vulnerabilities throughout the software development lifecycle to help organizations address risks earlier.

– Continuous Security Testing: Investigating emerging exposures and vulnerabilities as customer environments evolve, helping teams prioritize meaningful security risks.

These capabilities will combine AI-driven testing with the methodologies and judgment of Bishop Fox offensive security professionals. The goal is not simply to generate more findings, but to help customers understand which vulnerabilities matter most and where to focus remediation efforts.

“When a customer is responding to a security incident, getting answers quickly is critical,” said Rob Ragan, Principal at Bishop Fox. “OpenAI GPT Cyber Models helped us analyze an open-source vulnerability, investigate potential attack paths, and validate a patch in a controlled environment. Within hours, we were able to provide the customer with actionable findings and recommendations to address the underlying risk. It’s a powerful example of how advanced AI can accelerate security investigations and help us deliver meaningful outcomes for our customers.”

MAKING ADVANCED CYBER AI ACCESSIBLE TO ENTERPRISES

Through Bishop Fox, organizations will be able to benefit from advanced OpenAI GPT Cyber Models within established offensive security engagements, without needing to develop the infrastructure or specialized expertise to operate them independently.

Bishop Fox will apply these capabilities within customer-authorized testing workflows, with appropriate safeguards and oversight, to help organizations evaluate their security against evolving threats.

The company will continue expanding its use of OpenAI GPT Cyber Models across its offensive security portfolio, translating advances in AI into practical security outcomes for customers.

“Finding a vulnerability is the first step. Security teams need to know which findings are valid, which matter most, and what to fix first,” said David Habibian, Head of Cyber Partner GTM at OpenAI. “Through the OpenAI Daybreak Defense Network, we’re pairing OpenAI’s cyber capabilities with Bishop Fox’s offensive security expertise to help organizations validate findings, prioritize risks, and turn those findings into fixes.”
