OpenAI, Anthropic, Google and 100+ firms urge joint defense against AI cyberattacks

On Aug 27, 2026 more than 100 companies including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Microsoft, CrowdStrike, Okta and Fortinet signed an open letter warning that AI-enabled cyberattacks will become far more widespread and sophisticated in the coming months. It calls for new public-private partnerships and cites defensive AI programs already in use.
