Method Security and OpenAI partner to accelerate A.I. for U.S. National Security Cyber missions

Method Security and OpenAI today announced a strategic partnership to responsibly deploy A.I. capabilities for U.S. national security cyber missions.

The companies will integrate OpenAI’s state-of-the-art models into Method’s platform, built to operationalize A.I. for cyber defense. The partnership aims to give national security cyber operators a force-multiplying advantage to strengthen readiness and counter increasingly sophisticated threats.

U.S. cyber operators defend the world’s largest and most complex attack surface against rapidly advancing nation-state and criminal actors. National cyber readiness is essential to credible deterrence against near-peer adversaries. Meeting this challenge requires safely deploying A.I. at scale to re-secure critical institutions and proactively deter adversaries.

Method and OpenAI are developing a joint solution for cyber operators across the Department of Defense and Intelligence Community. By embedding OpenAI’s models within Method’s cyber-specific infrastructure, the platform delivers scalable, secure advantages in mission environments.

“Method was founded to deliver cyber resilience to critical institutions, including the U.S. national security apparatus,” said Sam Jones, CEO and Co-Founder of Method Security. “By combining OpenAI’s leading A.I. models with our platform, we can realize that mission. The future of cyber will be won by those who safely harness autonomy at scale.”

“OpenAI is committed to ensuring A.I. strengthens U.S. resilience,” said Katrina Mulligan, Head of National Security Partnerships at OpenAI. “Nowhere is this more vital than in cybersecurity. In Method Security, we have a partner aligned on delivering unmatched capabilities to U.S. cyber defenders—responsibly and ethically.”

The partnership reflects a shared belief that the future of cybersecurity depends on responsible innovation and continuous readiness. As adversaries weaponize A.I., Method and OpenAI are ensuring the United States leads not only in A.I. development but in its safe, ethical, and effective application to national defense.
