## About GPT-5.5 Cyber

GPT-5.5 Cyber was released on May 7, 2026 in a limited preview for defenders responsible for securing critical infrastructure. OpenAI positioned the model for authorized vulnerability research, validation and patch development, with more permissive behavior for approved security work. The June 22, 2026 Daybreak announcement then brought an updated GPT-5.5 Cyber to a wider group of vetted defenders.

OpenAI reported 85.6% on CyberGym for the updated model, compared with 81.8% for GPT-5.5. CyberGym tests reproducing known vulnerabilities in software environments; that score is not a measure of discovering previously unknown flaws. Access was intended for verified defenders with additional controls, distinct from using the general GPT-5.5 model under Trusted Access for Cyber.
