OpenAI announced its intention to expand the Trusted Access for Cyber program to cyber defenders at the federal, state and local government levels.
OpenAI's announcement: expansion of Trusted Access for Cyber
OpenAI has publicly stated an intention to expand its Trusted Access for Cyber program. The company specified that the planned extension of the program is aimed at cyber defenders operating within government, naming federal, state and local government levels as the target groups for that expansion.
Trusted Access for Cyber: the program named
The program at the center of the announcement is called Trusted Access for Cyber. OpenAI’s statement identifies that program by name and conveys an intention to extend it beyond its current scope to include personnel serving as cyber defenders across multiple tiers of government.
Federal, state and local government levels: the named beneficiaries
OpenAI’s announcement explicitly singles out cyber defenders at the federal, state and local government levels as the intended beneficiaries of the program expansion. The wording of the announcement ties the Trusted Access for Cyber program directly to those three tiers of government, naming them as the levels to which the program will be extended.
What this means for federal, state and local cyber defenders
- Federal cyber defenders: The announcement names federal-level cyber defenders among the recipients of the planned program expansion, indicating that they are included in OpenAI’s stated intention.
- State cyber defenders: OpenAI’s statement similarly includes state-level cyber defenders as a named group intended to be covered by the Trusted Access for Cyber expansion.
- Local cyber defenders: The announcement also names local government cyber defenders as part of the set of government personnel to which OpenAI intends to extend the program.
The immediate record and next step
The public record for this development is the announcement that OpenAI intends to expand Trusted Access for Cyber to cyber defenders at the federal, state and local government levels. The statement as released identifies the program by name and specifies those three levels of government as the targets of the intended expansion.
