The White House is establishing a new AI cybersecurity clearinghouse to help coordinate cybersecurity defenses across critical infrastructure. Industries and critical infrastructure are racing to catch up with new AI models with increasingly advanced abilities that can find and exploit (but also defend against) cybersecurity vulnerabilities.

Gold Eagle Clearinghouse

The White House’s clearinghouse, dubbed Gold Eagle, is a joint project across the Treasury, the Department of Homeland Security and the Pentagon. AI and cybersecurity companies, along with critical infrastructure providers like utilities and banks, will use the platform to communicate and coordinate their efforts.

A senior White House official stated that the new capabilities make vulnerability discovery at a scale that we have not seen before. The goal of the new clearinghouse is to deconflict and make sure resources are not being wasted, fixing or scanning for the same vulnerabilities, that those vulnerabilities are validated, and then a team of industry and government engineers are working to triage, prioritize and fix those vulnerabilities.
