What is CoSAI?

Security requires collective action and the best way to secure AI is with AI. To participate safely in the digital ecosystem — and secure it for everyone — individuals, developers and companies alike need to adopt common security standards and best practices. AI is no exception. The formation of the Coalition for Secure AI (CoSAI) aims to address this by fostering a collaborative ecosystem of diverse stakeholders to invest in AI security research collectively, share security expertise and best practices, and build technical open-source solutions and methodologies for secure AI development and deployment. 

CoSAI will address key AI security issues through several critical workstreams in collaboration with industry and academia, including efforts such as:

    • Software Supply Chain Security for AI Systems
    • Preparing Defenders for a Changing Security Landscape
    • AI Risk Governance

CoSAI will operate under OASIS Open, the international standards and open source consortium.
