Anthropic has launched the Critical Infrastructure Defense Program (CIDP) to help protect power grids, water systems and transportation networks from cyberattacks. Participating organizations will receive access to Anthropic’s most powerful AI models, on-site engineering support and threat research to strengthen their defenses.

Founding partners include cybersecurity and consulting firms CrowdStrike, Palo Alto Networks, Accenture, Deloitte, Booz Allen, Dragos and Rockwell Automation, among others. The initiative is part of the broader Anthropic Cyber Mission, which also focuses on securing open-source software.
