IBM is investing $5 billion in the AI-powered 'Project Lightwell' to resolve open-source vulnerabilities.

Details

IBM announced it will invest $5 billion in Project Lightwell to identify and resolve open-source vulnerabilities at scale.

The project aims to build a trusted enterprise clearinghouse and mobilize a global engineering workforce to fix security issues.

In particular, it leverages AI technology to serve as a security coordination layer that verifies and tests fixes for vast amounts of open-source code.

Through a commercial subscription service, enterprise customers can integrate verified security patches directly into their existing software supply chains and receive enterprise-grade lifecycle management support. In addition, information on discovered vulnerabilities will be shared with upstream projects.
