Nvidia forms Open Secure AI Alliance without OpenAI, Google or Anthropic

On July 27, 2026, Nvidia announced the Open Secure AI Alliance (OSAA), uniting nearly 40 companies including Microsoft, IBM, Adobe, Cisco, Cloudflare, CrowdStrike, SpaceX and Hugging Face around open-source tools for defending against AI-powered cyberattacks. Contributions include Microsoft's multi-agent vulnerability scanning framework, Hugging Face's Safetensors format, and IBM and Red Hat's signed patching system. The alliance formed days after the Hugging Face breach, and OpenAI, Google and Anthropic are notably absent.

Cloudflare's Precursor replaces CAPTCHAs with continuous behavior checks

Bots now generate about 57% of all web requests, and Cloudflare's answer, launched July 13, 2026, is Precursor: a continuous behavioral validation engine that analyzes mouse movements, scrolling patterns and typing rhythm in real time at the edge for the entire session, instead of testing once. A bot cannot reset the session to escape a bad score. It deploys with one click and is initially free for Cloudflare customers.
