# OpenAI opens frontier cyber models to approved Daybreak partners

> OpenAI's frontier cyber models become usable by approved partners in its Daybreak program to deliver authorized, governed cybersecurity services. Access is gated to vetted partners rather than generally available, so this changes who can obtain these capabilities, not what the general API offers.
