Microsoft has expanded its External Red Team Alliance (EXTRA), a global initiative that brings together independent researchers, academic institutions, and regional security experts to advance AI safety through collaborative red teaming.
The program focuses on identifying emerging threats, evaluating frontier AI models under realistic attack scenarios, and improving defenses against evolving risks such as prompt injection, misuse, and autonomous cyber capabilities.
Insights from EXTRA feed into Microsoft's broader AI security strategy, including Project Perception, helping improve security evaluations, governance practices, and responsible AI development. The initiative reflects Microsoft's continued investment in proactive testing before deploying advanced AI systems at scale.
