Anthropic, AWS, Google, GitHub, Microsoft, and OpenAI have collectively invested $12.5 million through the Linux Foundation, to be managed by OpenSSF and Alpha-Omega. The funding aims to strengthen open source security, support overworked maintainers dealing with a surge of AI-generated security reports, and improve software supply chain resilience. In 2025, OpenSSF completed 60+ security audits, fixed 52 vulnerabilities, grew to 117 member organizations, and enrolled nearly 20,000 learners in free security training. The new investment will also address AI's dual role as both an accelerator of development and a source of new security challenges.
