Frequently Asked Questions About Frontier AI Defense
Unit 42 is the threat intelligence, incident response, and security consulting arm of Palo Alto Networks helping organizations prepare for, respond to and recover from cyber incidents.
Frontier AI refers to the most advanced AI models, including Anthropic Mythos and OpenAI GPT-Cyber, capable of reasoning across complex tasks, generating code and autonomously executing multistep workflows.
Frontier AI can help attackers identify unknown vulnerabilities, develop exploit code, chain together attack paths and operate at greater speed and scale. Security teams need to account for both AI-enabled attacks against their environment and risks created by their own AI systems, agents and software supply chain.
Unit 42 Frontier AI Defense helps organizations identify and validate exposures before attackers weaponize them. Using frontier AI models and Unit 42 adversary expertise, we simulate advanced attacks, test exploitability and provide evidence-based recommendations on where to focus.
Unit 42 uses a multi-model approach alongside its offensive security experts and real-world threat intelligence. This helps identify more potential exposures, validate which attack paths are truly exploitable and focus recommendations on the risks that matter most.
