Fusion42 · 20 July 2026 · Fusion42 review

OpenAI and ReliaQuest have partnered under OpenAI's Daybreak programme to embed advanced AI models into enterprise cybersecurity platforms, with ReliaQuest gaining access to GPT-5.5-Cyber and CodexSecurity tools for faster vulnerability detection and threat response. The partnership reflects growing use of AI by both defenders and attackers, with Anthropic data showing 67% of threat actors now use AI in attack preparation.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Cybersecurity. Wire is Fusion42's founder-focused intelligence feed: each story is connected to the funds and startups it names — every one with a live profile on Raise or Scout — so founders can follow the capital and the momentum behind the headline rather than just the headline itself. Wire analysis is one of the live surfaces Arthur reasons over.

The Wire takeaway

If you build cybersecurity tools, your customers now expect AI-native threat response - and OpenAI just picked ReliaQuest to prove it works at scale. You either integrate frontier models fast or become the integration target for someone who does.
