Secure and defensive coding (Anthropic)

Only in system cards

Cyber safeguard classifiers screen sampled defensive coding sessions such as patching and incident response. Score is the classifier flag rate.

Measures false positives of the deployed classifier system on benign cyber work. An LLM grader labels sessions as purely defensive.

Labs report it only in system cards

We read the headline results of 522 launch posts from 52 labs, and none of them list this benchmark. Some system cards do, below.

2 system cards report it, from 1 lab

Besides launch posts, we read the system cards, model cards and technical reports labs publish with a release. They report far more, including safety and frontier-risk tests.
