- Anthropic on Thursday unveiled OSS Scanner, an opt-in vulnerability scanner that uses AI to help secure the open-source ecosystem.
- OSS Scanner is informed by Anthropic's experience using Claude to find vulnerabilities during its internal initiative called Project Glasswing.
Why it matters: Open-source maintainers gain free access to AI-driven vulnerability scanning backed by Anthropic's Claude, which the company says was battle-tested during Project Glasswing. The opt-in model puts enterprise-grade security tooling within reach of projects that couldn't otherwise afford it, while giving Anthropic a goodwill foothold in the open-source community.
