# GreyNoise Launches AI Cyber Defense Benchmark

GreyNoise launched a public benchmark comparing 46 AI models on cyber-defense tasks using eight years of observed attack data. Government and industry security teams can use the benchmark as an evaluation resource when assessing AI tools, but the announcement identifies no solicitation, contract award, or funded procurement opportunity. GreyNoise plans benchmark expansions, and the 2027 Artificial Intelligence Summit is scheduled for March 18, 2027.

- Procurement teams evaluating AI-enabled cybersecurity tools can use the benchmark’s comparative results as one input to technical assessments; the signal does not describe a formal government evaluation standard.
- Contractors developing cyber-defense AI may use the benchmark to assess model performance against observed attack data and identify areas for product improvement.
- Industry stakeholders can consider the March 18, 2027 Artificial Intelligence Summit for engagement; no registration details or procurement deadlines are provided.
