CrowdStrike has officially introduced Project QuiltWorks, a collaborative, industry-wide initiative designed to combat the growing wave of vulnerabilities uncovered by advanced AI models. As cybersecurity risks evolve rapidly, this coalition brings together leading organizations such as Accenture, EY, IBM Cybersecurity Services, Kroll, and OpenAI, alongside CrowdStrike’s extensive partner ecosystem.

To begin with, the initiative focuses on identifying, prioritizing, and resolving vulnerabilities in production code that next-generation AI models are increasingly discovering. At a time when boards and executives are raising concerns about exposure to AI-driven threats, Project QuiltWorks aims to provide clear answers and actionable solutions.

In addition, CrowdStrike launched the Frontier AI Readiness and Resilience Service to support organizations with continuous, expert-led cybersecurity engagements. This service integrates frontier AI capabilities from OpenAI and Anthropic with insights from global system integrators. As a result, businesses gain access to advanced assessments, board-level risk insights, adversary-focused prioritization, and structured remediation strategies.

“As frontier AI accelerates vulnerability discovery, every board in the world is asking their CISO the same question: are we exposed and are we protected?” said George Kurtz. “Project QuiltWorks is how the industry comes together to give every organization the answer their board needs.”

Moreover, Project QuiltWorks combines CrowdStrike’s AI-powered threat intelligence with remediation expertise from leading partners. The CrowdStrike Falcon® platform processes trillions of daily security events, enabling organizations to identify vulnerabilities that attackers can realistically exploit. Consequently, enterprises can move beyond theoretical risk assessments and focus on real-world threats.

Notably, frontier AI models now uncover complex issues such as logic flaws, design gaps, and misconfigurations that traditional tools often miss. This shift significantly reduces the time between vulnerability discovery and exploitation, leaving organizations with limited response windows. Therefore, the coalition emphasizes continuous monitoring and rapid remediation at scale.

The initiative delivers a structured approach that includes assessment, AI-driven model deployment, risk prioritization, and guided remediation. Furthermore, it translates technical findings into clear, board-level insights, ensuring leadership teams can make informed decisions.

Industry leaders have also expressed strong support for this initiative:

“While AI ushers in new ways of operating, CISOs must address the risks it introduces to the software development lifecycle. Through Project QuiltWorks, Accenture and CrowdStrike will deliver the operational muscle to remediate code-level issues and help clients build full-scale protection.”

– Harpreet Sidhu, Global Lead, Accenture Cybersecurity

“In the frontier AI era, innovation and risk are accelerating together, and most organizations aren’t ready to manage what that means. Project QuiltWorks is designed to help enterprises manage this new class of vulnerabilities at scale.

– David Cooper, EY Americas Cyber Commercial Leader

“Frontier models are creating a new category of enterprise threats that are fast-moving, systemic, and increasingly autonomous. We’re actively working with clients to assess their security posture and strengthen their readiness to meet these new AI-driven vulnerabilities. With CrowdStrike, Project QuiltWorks, and IBM’s Autonomous Security, together we’re extending this approach to allow our clients to manage this new class of risk at machine speed.”

– Mark Hughes, Global Managing Partner of Cybersecurity Services, IBM Consulting

“We have a deep history of working with CrowdStrike to deliver the outcomes organizations need to adopt transformative technologies securely at scale, and to overcome adversary disruption efforts by building a more resilient digital organization. Over 90% of our clients have told us they are dealing with cyber incidents related to the use of AI, and our Offensive Security experts continue to see substantial growth in enterprise vulnerabilities for in-house AI-developed apps. As frontier AI models introduce a wave of new vulnerabilities, our participation in Project QuiltWorks is the next step to ensure customers are protected and prepared.”

– Dave Burg, Global Head of Cyber and Data Resilience, Kroll

“AI is transforming cybersecurity, and defenders need advanced intelligence to keep pace. Through Trusted Access for Cyber, we’re putting stronger capabilities in trusted hands to accelerate vulnerability discovery and remediation, improve resilience, and help secure critical software across the ecosystem. We’re proud to support CrowdStrike’s Project QuiltWorks and its focus on practical collaboration for a more secure digital world.”

– Dane Stuckey, CISO, OpenAI
