Artificial Analysis launches Cyber Index to benchmark AI models on enterprise vulnerability defense

Artificial Analysis, the independent AI benchmarking platform, is expanding into cybersecurity. The organization launched its Cyber Index (v1) on September 25, evaluating how effectively AI models perform the work of finding and fixing vulnerabilities in enterprise systems. Three benchmarks, one composite score The Cyber Index is built on a composite of three distinct benchmarks, each contributed by industry partners: CWE-Bench-AA, DeepsecBench-AA, and CyberGym-E2E-AA. Together, they cover the full lifecycle of enterprise vulnerability management, from discovery through validation to patching. CWE-Bench-AA appears oriented around Common Weakness Enumeration categories, the standardized classification system that catalogs software and hardware vulnerability types. DeepsecBench-AA focuses on deeper security analysis tasks. CyberGym-E2E-AA rounds out the trio with end-to-end evaluation scenarios, testing whether AI agents can navigate realistic attack surfaces from start to finish. Defense, not offense One deliberate design choice stands out: the Cyber Index focuses squarely on defensive cybersecurity. The index evaluates models on their ability to help businesses preemptively manage ...
