In March, DARPA will add multiple companies to its Quantum Benchmarking Initiative, program manager Joe Altepeter told Breaking Defense. “A year from now we’ll know a lot more about if this industry is for real or not.”
With DARPA’s AI Cyber Challenge (AIxCC) semifinal starting today at DEF CON 2024, we want to introduce Buttercup, our AIxCC submission. Buttercup is a Cyber Reasoning System (CRS) that combines conventional cybersecurity techniques like fuzzing and static analysis with AI and machine learning to find and fix software vulnerabilities. The system is designed to operate […]
