Anthropic expands Cyber Verification Program into three tiered access levels

Key points

• Three tiers: Defense Access, Red Team Access, and Specialized Access, matched to the scope of each security team's cyber work.
• Defense Access reviews applications within a few days; Red Team applications may take a few weeks and enroll applicants in Defense Access meanwhile.
• Specialized Access is limited to verified organizations, reviewed in depth with the US government; existing Project Glasswing members transition into it.
• CVP is available on Claude Platform, Vertex AI, and Microsoft Foundry; Amazon Bedrock only for Enterprise Frontier Safeguards-eligible customers.

Why it matters for marketers: Security content and product teams serving defenders can now map qualifying customers to a specific tier, and should check platform availability and data retention rules before promising access.
