CrowdStrike has unveiled Project QuiltWorks, a new industry coalition designed to help organisations identify and remediate a growing wave of vulnerabilities uncovered by frontier artificial intelligence models.
The initiative brings together major consulting and technology partners, including Accenture, EY, IBM Cybersecurity Services, Kroll, and AI leaders such as OpenAI, forming a coordinated ecosystem aimed at addressing vulnerabilities discovered at machine speed.
The launch reflects a growing concern across boardrooms as AI systems dramatically accelerate the discovery of software flaws, compressing the window between vulnerability identification and exploitation. According to CrowdStrike, organisations are increasingly being asked to provide clear answers on their exposure to these emerging risks.
“Project QuiltWorks is how the industry comes together to give every organisation the answer their board needs,” George Kurtz, CEO and founder of CrowdStrike, said in a statement.
Alongside the coalition, CrowdStrike has also introduced its Frontier AI Readiness and Resilience Service, offering continuous, expert-led engagements to help organisations assess their security posture, deploy AI-driven vulnerability scanning, prioritise risk based on exploitability and business impact, and execute remediation strategies.
The move comes as frontier AI models begin uncovering increasingly complex vulnerabilities - including logic flaws, design weaknesses, and novel exploit paths -that traditional tools and manual reviews often miss. This shift is effectively eliminating the buffer time defenders once relied on to patch systems before attackers move in.
Industry partners say the collaboration will be critical as organisations attempt to secure software development lifecycles in an era where AI is reshaping both offensive and defensive cyber capabilities.
“Through Project QuiltWorks, Accenture and CrowdStrike will deliver the operational muscle to remediate code-level issues and help clients build full-scale protection,” Harpreet Sidhu, global lead for cybersecurity at Accenture, said.
