Cognizant and OpenAI bring frontier AI cyber defense from vulnerability discovery to validated fixes

Published

on

As a member of the OpenAI Daybreak Cyber Partner Program, Cognizant brings the services, security expertise and implementation scale to help enterprises move frontier AI capability into production-grade defense.

TEANECK, N.J., July 2, 2026 /CNW/ — Cognizant (Nasdaq: CTSH) today announced it is applying GPT-5.5 with Trusted Access for Cyber, through its Frontier AI Cyber Defense services, to help enterprises move faster from vulnerability discovery to validated, tested fixes. As a member of the OpenAI Daybreak Cyber Partner Program, Cognizant is putting frontier AI capability into its security experts’ hands, helping strengthen how clients defend the software they build and operate.

Frontier AI is changing the economics of cyber defense. AI can now help surface vulnerabilities across large, complex codebases with greater speed and scale. But discovery is only the beginning. Protecting the enterprise depends on what comes next: validating which findings are real, understanding their impact, developing and testing a patch and landing the fix before an attacker can act.

The remediation gap is where enterprises must focus their efforts, and where Cognizant has the domain and institutional depth to help deliver, bringing a cybersecurity practice built over more than a decade, with 5,000+ security professionals. Cognizant’s deep experience across regulated industries is intended to give clients the institutional muscle to put frontier capability to work at scale.

“Frontier AI has changed the equation for cyber defense, but a model’s power only matters in how it is applied inside a real enterprise,” said Sandra Notardonato, Global Head of Partner Development and Influencer Relations, Cognizant. “That is where Cognizant’s AI Builder approach is designed to deliver. Our security teams bring these capabilities into our clients’ code and security operations, helping them move from finding exposures to validating and remediating them. The advantage belongs to defenders who can pair frontier capability with the people and context to apply it responsibly, and that is what we aim to deliver at enterprise scale.”

Through its Frontier AI Cyber Defense services, Cognizant’s security professionals apply GPT-5.5 with Trusted Access for Cyber across authorized defensive workflows, including secure code review, threat modeling, vulnerability discovery and validation, detection engineering, threat hunting, and incident investigation and response. These capabilities are designed to embed into the workflows clients already run, with human validation and oversight at every step. They augment the deterministic controls and monitoring enterprises depend on rather than replacing them, accelerating the path from finding to fix while keeping defenders in control.

“Frontier cyber capability reaches more defenders when partners can operationalize it inside the trusted workflows enterprises already use every day,” said Colleen Kapase, Vice President of Strategic Global Partnerships and Ecosystems, OpenAI. “Cognizant brings cybersecurity domain depth and delivery scale to help enterprises apply these capabilities responsibly, with the oversight and governance required to move from discovery to validated remediation.”

Cognizant applies these capabilities within its own security operations before bringing them to clients, operating as its own Client Zero. Its security teams use GPT-5.5 with Trusted Access for Cyber across internal defensive workflows, including secure code review, vulnerability triage and validation and pull-request and CI/CD security review, with human validation and oversight at every step. 

In its own environment, Cognizant is applying these capabilities across its estate of products, platforms and internal repositories to accelerate the lifecycle of vulnerability management from discovery to validation through remediation. This operational experience, earned on its own estate, is what Cognizant brings to client engagements.

Cognizant and OpenAI are working together within a framework built for responsible deployment, with scoped access, monitoring and human oversight designed to keep these capabilities in the hands of trusted defenders. It is the foundation for an expanding collaboration, as both companies work to bring frontier cyber defense to more enterprises.

About Cognizant
Cognizant (Nasdaq: CTSH) is an AI Builder and technology services provider, bridging the gap between AI investment and enterprise value by building full-stack AI solutions for our clients.

Data Center Air Filtration Market to Reach USD 1.19 Billion by 2035 as Replacement Filters and Gas-Phase Media Drive Recurring Spend – DC Market Insights

Published

on

By

Market grows at an 8.59% CAGR from USD 520.20 million in 2025; replacement filters hold 78.3% of spending and gas-phase filtration grows fastest at 11.16% a year

LONDON, Oct. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The “Data Center Air Filtration Market – Growth, Share, Opportunities & Competitive Analysis, 2026-2035” report has been added to the DC Market Insights offering. The global Data Center Air Filtration Market was valued at USD 520.20 million in 2025, is estimated at USD 589.74 million in 2026, and is projected to reach USD 1.19 billion by 2035, growing at a CAGR of 8.59% from 2025 to 2035. DC Market Insights finds that this is primarily a recurring consumables market: replacement filters and media account for 78.3% of 2025 value, while liquid cooling slows first-fit demand by moving more AI rack heat away from the room air path.

“Data center air filtration is increasingly an installed-base business. Liquid cooling reduces the air path in new AI halls, but hundreds of gigawatts of air-handled capacity still need recurring filter changes, and polluted or corrosive locations require more expensive fine and gas-phase media. That makes replacement contracts, pressure monitoring and chemical filtration the most defensible growth pools through 2035.”

— Amit Jain, Senior Consultant, ICT & Emerging Technologies, DC Market Insights, report author

Why This Report Matters

Air filtration sits at the intersection of equipment reliability, free-air cooling efficiency and contamination control. The report helps filter manufacturers, cooling vendors, data center operators, hyperscalers, colocation providers and investors size first-fit and replacement demand, compare filter classes and identify geographies where dust, smoke and corrosive gases raise lifecycle spending.

Why Does Replacement Spending Outgrow First-Fit Demand?

Liquid cooling removes a growing share of AI rack heat from the room air path, which limits the volume of first-fit filters required per new megawatt. Replacement demand behaves differently: existing air-cooled and hybrid halls continue to change pre-filters, fine filters and gas-phase media according to pressure drop, contamination and operating conditions. DC Market Insights therefore models replacement filters and media growing 9.33% a year, compared with 5.48% for first fit.

Which Filter Type Leads Data Center Air Filtration Spending?

Fine filters lead 2025 spending with 38.0% of market value, while gas-phase filtration grows fastest as operators manage sulfur dioxide, hydrogen sulfide and other corrosive contaminants around industrial and urban locations.

DC Exclusive: The 1 MW Filter Change-Out Ledger

DC Market Insights estimates a 2025 fleet-average replacement bill of about USD 3,600 per MW of air-handled IT load a year. The model combines airflow, filter-face count, filter prices and change frequency across recirculation, outside-air intake, make-up air, gas-phase media and electrical-room applications. This ledger explains why the installed base, rather than only the annual build cohort, drives long-term revenue.

Which Region Leads the Data Center Air Filtration Market?

North America leads with 39.0% of 2025 value, while the Middle East and Africa grows fastest at 12.13% a year as desert dust and harsh ambient conditions shorten filter life on new Gulf campuses. The United States is the largest country market, while India grows rapidly because dust and corrosive gases increase the need for fine and chemical media.
