CrowdStrike is excited to announce the launch of Project QuiltWorks, a fresh industry coalition dedicated to addressing the rapid growth in the number of security vulnerabilities in software as a result of frontier AI models. This update will serve as a key element in helping enterprise cybersecurity measures match the speed of artificial intelligence. The initiative features partnerships with ecosystem players such as Accenture, EY, IBM Cybersecurity Services, Kroll, and OpenAI to utilize their knowledge and resources alongside CrowdStrike’s Falcon Platform in detecting and remediating security threats that arise during the process of coding in production environments. The emergence of more sophisticated AI models has exposed various logic flaws, configuration issues, and even new avenues of exploiting software, thus reducing the window for detection and resolution to seconds or minutes. To cope with this problem, CrowdStrike has developed its Frontier AI Readiness and Resilience Service. The coalition aims to provide board-level visibility into cyber risk while enabling organizations to respond more effectively to threats driven by AI innovation.

Emphasizing the urgency of this transformation, George Kurtz, CEO and founder of CrowdStrike, stated, “As frontier AI accelerates vulnerability discovery, every board in the world is asking their CISO the same question: are we exposed and are we protected?” He added, “Project QuiltWorks is how the industry comes together to give every organization the answer their board needs.” Partners supporting Project QuiltWorks also underscored the requirement for a collaborative approach towards defense as adoption of AI technologies is rising, stating that there is already a rise in the number of cyber-attacks being carried out through the use of AI. Project QuiltWorks seeks to bring together prominent cybersecurity firms, AI laboratories, and system integrators to narrow down the growing difference between identifying vulnerabilities and fixing them.
