Today we're launching the Open Defense Initiative: up to $5 million in @depthfirstlabs credits for critical open source projects to find and fix real, exploitable vulnerabilities.
The timing matters: frontier models can autonomously discover and exploit vulnerabilities in widely-reviewed codebases. Open source models will catch up soon, and when they do, bad actors will have unfiltered access to these capabilities. We have a narrow window to harden critical software before that happens.
This is the time to act, but until today frontier-level security, like what Mythos offers, has been reserved for a handful of large companies who are required to pay a lot for access. depthfirst is not only comparable in performance but also goes significantly beyond surface level findings, highlighting real, exploitable vulnerabilities due to its understanding of the system’s context and ability to verify like an attacker would. depthfirst found vulnerabilities in FFmpeg that Mythos missed, at a tenth of Anthropic's self reported spend. We want every defender to have these capabilities, starting with the open source projects the world runs on.
If you maintain a critical open source project, apply for Open Defense credits through the form in the comments.
depthfirst has raised an $80M Series B at a $580M valuation.
Attackers are using AI to break into systems faster than ever before. depthfirst is on a mission to stop this.

I spoke with Head Coaches from Air Force, Army, and Navy to hear their suggestions for High School Athletes trying to navigate the College Recruiting process. 🪖
Here’s my 3 Tips for getting to the next level 📈
(Thread & Video Below) ⬇️
Tip #3: Be Ready to Serve 🎖️
While you don’t have to know what you want to do after your time as a Student Athlete - it’s important to know generally where you want to go. Each Academy requires ~ 4-5 years of service following your time in College. 🫡
Tip #2: Come with Transcripts & Athletic Stats 🧠
When emailing Coaches, NEATLY lay out all your athletic stats in the body of the email to show them you’re qualified. Additionally, attach your HS Transcript so Coaches can see if you’d be academically eligible. 🤓
Tip #1: Plan Early, Plan Ahead 📝
Before speaking with coaches from these schools, it’s important to get the basics out of the way - Letters from Representatives & Physicals.
This will help expedite your process when speaking to Coaches! 📞
