Palantir, Nvidia, Booz Allen restrict Anthropic and OpenAI models over data retention concerns

Palantir Technologies, Nvidia, and Booz Allen Hamilton are restricting use of AI models from Anthropic and OpenAI over data protection concerns, Reuters reported. The companies worry model providers could retain or extract value from sensitive corporate information. Palantir has pressed Anthropic for zero data retention guarantees. Nvidia limits Anthropic's models to less sensitive tasks, favouring its own Nemotron models for proprietary work. Booz Allen has banned staff from using Anthropic's commercial model on cybersecurity projects involving proprietary data. The pushback intensified after Anthropic introduced a 30-day data retention policy in June for its Claude 3.5 model, citing security monitoring needs. Anthropic responded by launching Enterprise Frontier Safeguards, allowing customers to store activity data in their own cloud infrastructure under their encryption keys.

Booz Allen unveils Counter AI defence tool as frontier models achieve fully autonomous network intrusion

Booz Allen Hamilton has released a threat report revealing that advanced AI models can now autonomously execute complete network intrusions without human guidance. The firm tested 18 US and Chinese AI models through its Cyber Weapon Index. The report warns that sophisticated cyberattacks are becoming more accessible as costs and expertise requirements decline. Booz Allen found that coordinated Counter AI defences reduced autonomous attacker success by more than 95% in testing. To address these threats, the company launched Vellox Labs Guile, a Counter AI product designed to disrupt autonomous attacks by manipulating what AI attackers see and trust. The system adapts in real time using frontier AI models to evolve its defences against emerging threats. The report emphasises that entire AI systems, not just individual models, now represent the primary unit of cybersecurity risk.
