Semgrep chosen to be part of OpenAI’s Trusted Access for Cyber Program

Security backlogs have long been a challenge for AppSec teams, exacerbated by the rapid pace of AI-driven coding tools that outstrip the ability of security measures to keep up. OpenAI has launched Trusted Access for Cyber, a program designed to enhance defensive security by providing vetted organizations access to advanced AI models with superior cyber reasoning. As part of OpenAI's Cybersecurity Grant Program, Semgrep is among the initial beneficiaries, receiving support to improve software supply chain security and vulnerability research. Semgrep Multimodal effectively combines AI reasoning with rule-based analysis, significantly increasing true positive detections while reducing false positives compared to using large language models alone. This capability has already identified critical zero-day vulnerabilities and enhances triage by streamlining the review process, as evidenced by a high user agreement rate. Additionally, Semgrep's Autofix tool offers contextual remediation guidance and upgrade assistance, crucial for managing breaking changes in code dependencies. The Trusted Access for Cyber initiative is backed by major security enterprises like Bank of America and Cisco, aiming to ensure that defenders have access to frontier AI capabilities to match those of potential attackers.
