Today we’re launching Securing America’s Infrastructure Foundation, a new nonprofit, bringing AI-powered cyber defense to them at no cost. SAIF starts with focused goals for on the ground impact and $25M in committed funding by a16z's founders. I’m joined by a founding board of Brian Barrios, @GoldsmithOnGov, Bob Lord, @vishalmisra and @philvenables.

    a16z@a16zAI could help defend communities that lack the resources to fight off cyberattacks. a16z's @AnneNeuberger on the mission behind the Securing America's Infrastructure Foundation, starting with rural hospitals: "America has 1,800 rural hospitals... Those hospitals lack the skills, the people, the money to ensure that they are not disrupted due to cyberattacks." "AI makes a real difference in being able to economically defend networks, to find vulnerabilities..." "A, can we build an easy open-source AI harness to enable us to find and block cyberattacks?" "B, stand up an effort to take the code on IoT devices like internet-connected MRI machines to patch those." "And thirdly, when there is an incident, adopt the model that New York City and New York State used, where they set up a security operations center that was able to support multiple smaller communities in responding to an incident." "So those are the three parts we're thinking about in helping critical infrastructure leverage AI to secure the critical systems Americans rely on every day."
