OpenAI expands Daybreak cyber defense across two thousand organizations
OpenAI launched a six-month, $1 billion Daybreak access and support program for frontline cyber defenders. The company says thousands of defenders across 2,000 approved organizations already use Daybreak and describes practical water-system and MS-ISAC work in which models helped review code and configurations, develop patches, and confirm remediation while systems remained operational.

Why it moved the index
The program increases defensive capacity for public-interest and critical-infrastructure organizations through subsidized access, training, and technical support. The primary source reports current use across 2,000 approved organizations and specific operational remediation work, so this is more than a future pledge. No exact underlying model version is identified, and the record therefore makes no model association.
