  • •Artificial Analysis launched the Cyber Index to evaluate AI in cyber defense.
  • •The Cyber Index combines three benchmarks to assess vulnerability detection and remediation.
  • •Top-performing models in the Cyber Index include Grok 4.7 and MiMo-V2.6-Pro.

On September 28, 2026, Artificial Analysis announced the launch of the Cyber Index and the Cyber Index Alliance, aimed at establishing a standard for evaluating AI models in enterprise cyber defense. The Cyber Index combines three benchmarks: CWE-Bench-AA, DeepsecBench-AA, and CyberGym-E2E-AA, to assess how well AI agents can identify and remediate vulnerabilities in codebases. The evaluation focuses on defensive capabilities without allowing models to create exploits. Key partners in this initiative include Collinear AI, IBM, NVIDIA, and Vercel. The Cyber Index revealed that models like Grok 4.7 and MiMo-V2.6-Pro scored highest, while several frontier models declined a significant number of tasks due to safety concerns. The scoring reflects the models' effectiveness in finding and fixing vulnerabilities across various programming languages and frameworks.
