HAKINMHAN/iStock via Getty Images OpenAI has launched Daybreak, a new AI initiative aimed at identifying and fixing software vulnerabilities before they can be exploited by attackers. The program leverages the Codex Security AI agent, introduced in March, to build threat models from an organization’s codebase, analyze potential attack paths, verify likely vulnerabilities, and automate detection of the highest-risk issues. Its launch comes just over a month after rival Anthropic ( ANTHRO ) announced Claude Mythos, a security-focused AI model it claimed was too dangerous to publicly release and only shared privately as a part of its initiative, dubbed Project Glasswing. However, OpenAI ( OPENAI ) has so far lacked a similar security product. Like Glasswing, Daybreak isn’t built on just one AI model - OpenAI says “Daybreak brings together the most capable OpenAI models, Codex, and our security partners.” Daybreak also involves specialized cyber models, including GPT-5.5 with Trusted Access for Cyber and GPT-5.5-Cyber, which began rolling out last week. OpenAI also says it’s working with its “industry and government partners” while it prepares to “deploy increasingly more cyber-capable models.” More on OpenAI, Anthropic Wall Street Lunch: UAE Blindsides Oil Market With OPEC Exit Plan Wall Street Lunch: OpenAI Loosens Exclusivity In Revised Microsoft Pact Anthropic Is Taking Over Enterprise Microsoft CEO says OpenAI's for-profit entity crucial 'to pursue its mission' Accenture dips after OpenAI deployment co. launch, but UBS remains positive

Banca Monte dei Paschi di Siena SpA ’s profit in the first quarter beat expectations, giving tailwind to Chief Executive Officer Luigi Lovaglio and his effort to integrate Mediobanca SpA . Net income, which includes the contribution from Mediobanca, was €521 million ($612 million) in the period, the lender said in a statement Tuesday. That compared with an average analyst estimate of €507 million. Higher than expected income from trading and fees boosted revenue in the quarter. Lovaglio last month pulled off a spectacular return to the helm of Monte Paschi after the previous board ousted him, just months after his takeover of Mediobanca had created Italy’s third-largest bank. Lovaglio aims to complete the integration of the former rival by the end of the year. Read More: Paschi’s Ousted CEO Lovaglio Triumphs in New Boardroom Drama Several bank CEOs recently said they’re getting ready for more deals across the Italian finance industry. Lovaglio predicted in a Bloomberg interview last year that consolidation will continue, and said Monte Paschi is “ready to play a central role” in such a scenario. Lovaglio is widely credited with reviving the Tuscan bank after years of losses. He’s facing a probe by prosecutors into the Mediobanca deal, though he has denied wrongdoing.
