CrowdStrike Unites Industry Against AI-Driven Security Risks

CrowdStrike has officially launched Project QuiltWorks an industry-wide coalition that brings together Accenture, EY, IBM, Kroll, and OpenAI to tackle the growing wave of AI-discovered software vulnerabilities.

CrowdStrike officially launched Project QuiltWorks on April 23, 2026, an industry-wide coalition designed to help organizations identify and remediate the surge of software vulnerabilities now being uncovered by frontier artificial intelligence models.

Furthermore, the initiative brings together some of the biggest names in the sector, including Accenture, EY, IBM Cybersecurity Services, Kroll, and OpenAI, alongside CrowdStrike’s broader partner network. Together, they aim to answer the single most pressing question facing corporate boards today: Are we exposed?

Frontier AI models are now capable of uncovering logic bugs, design flaws, misconfigurations, and novel exploit paths that traditional automated scanners and even experienced human reviewers consistently miss. As a result, the window between vulnerability discovery and active exploitation has effectively collapsed.

In other words, security teams no longer have the luxury of time they once did to patch and respond. Consequently, CrowdStrike has positioned Project QuiltWorks as the industry’s answer to this accelerating risk.

Powered by frontier AI models from both OpenAI and Anthropic, Project QuiltWorks operates through four core pillars. First, assessment experts review each organization’s current security posture and remediation capacity. Second, frontier AI-powered model deployment scans applications and codebases to surface genuinely exploitable vulnerabilities that legacy tools overlook. Third, risk prioritization uses expert red teamers who rank findings by exploitability, adversary activity, and business impact going well beyond standard CVSS scores. Finally, guided remediation translates all findings into clear, board-level action plans.

Additionally, to directly support customers, CrowdStrike simultaneously launched the Frontier AI Readiness and Resilience Service a 12-month renewable subscription available through Falcon Flex dollars that delivers continuous, expert- and agent-led security engagements.

The coalition has drawn strong endorsements across the board. George Kurtz, CEO and founder of CrowdStrike, framed the stakes clearly, noting that every board is asking whether their organization is exposed and protected and that Project QuiltWorks is how the industry collectively provides that answer.

From IBM’s perspective, Mark Hughes, Global Managing Partner of Cybersecurity Services, stressed that the coalition extends their approach to managing this new class of risk at machine speed. Kroll’s Dave Burg, meanwhile, highlighted that over 90% of their clients are already dealing with cyber incidents connected to AI use, a striking figure that underscores the coalition’s timeliness.

OpenAI’s CISO Dane Stuckey also weighed in, noting that through the Trusted Access for Cyber programme, the company is putting stronger capabilities into trusted hands to accelerate vulnerability discovery and remediation across the ecosystem.

Project QuiltWorks and the AI vulnerability assessment service are available immediately to enterprises worldwide. Organizations interested in getting started can visit CrowdStrike’s official Project QuiltWorks page. The Frontier AI Readiness and Resilience Service is purchasable as a 12-month renewable subscription via Falcon Flex dollars.

Ultimately, Project QuiltWorks represents a pivotal industry shift moving from isolated cybersecurity efforts toward a coordinated, AI-powered response to an AI-powered threat. For enterprises navigating the frontier AI era, the message is clear: the question is no longer whether you are exposed, but how quickly you can find out and respond.
