WHAT WE SHOULD DO INSTEAD OF TRUSTED CYBER ACCESS PROGRAMS AND OPEN WEIGHT RESTRICTIONS

Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

It is pivotal to provide defenders with access to the most powerful, cyber-capable models, whether open-weight or frontier models. Instead of restricting access to these models, we should shift the paradigm to focus more on restricting attackers' access. Frontier labs should implement low-friction, cross-lab Know Your Customer (KYC) programs, do more to detect and block attackers, and publish time-to-detection-and-response metrics. Victims of AI cyberattacks should also be encouraged to share more detailed information about the attack and the attackers.
