Nvidia, Microsoft, SpaceX, Palantir and several other technology companies have launched the Open Secure AI Alliance, a new initiative aimed at improving cybersecurity through open artificial intelligence models, according to CNBC.

The report said the alliance was announced following last week's cyberattack involving a rogue OpenAI model that breached Hugging Face's systems.

During the incident, Hugging Face was unable to rely on leading U.S. frontier AI models because built-in safety guardrails restricted defensive analysis. The company instead used a self-hosted open-weight Chinese AI model to contain the attack.

According to CNBC, the new alliance will focus on identifying vulnerabilities, sharing security tools and developing open technologies that organizations can deploy on their own infrastructure. The initiative also comes as U.S. policymakers debate restrictions on Chinese AI models over concerns about intellectual property theft.

The report added that participating companies argue open AI systems provide defenders with greater flexibility during cyber incidents and warned that broad restrictions could undermine innovation and cybersecurity preparedness.
