The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency has released the scoring criteria for the final phase of the AI Cyber Challenge, aimed at developing AI systems to protect critical infrastructure. This competition will evaluate how well these systems can detect and resolve both synthetic and real-world vulnerabilities. The initiative highlights the ongoing threat posed by cyberattacks on essential services like transportation and healthcare.
The final competition will take place at DEF CON 33 in Las Vegas, featuring four rounds, with only the last round being scored. Teams will demonstrate their systems' capabilities in identifying and patching vulnerabilities in software crucial for national security and public safety. The goal is to create advanced solutions that can be immediately utilized by both public and private sectors to enhance cybersecurity.
