According to a statement from OpenAI, Cloudflare uses the Daybreak system to investigate vulnerabilities and propose fixes, which are then reviewed. Its development teams also work with Codex to program faster and improve code quality.

The report describes a concrete practical use at a large infrastructure provider, but so far it is backed only by OpenAI's account. Independent information on scope, results or metrics is not available in the sources provided. For companies considering similar tools for security analysis, it remains open how many findings were actually confirmed and how much human review was required.

At the same time, a comment by economics professor Ethan Mollick points to the growing speed at which AI accelerates both attacks and defense. He refers to known vulnerabilities and warns that the number of undiscovered gaps is likely even larger. Whether this impression applies to the specific Cloudflare case cannot be verified from the sources.
