Linux Foundation Proposes SAFE AI Security Guidelines
The Linux Foundation has published a Request for Comments on SAFE, the Shared AI Findings Exchange, a proposed set of guidelines meant to turn agentic cybersecurity incidents into shared protection across the ecosystem. To be clear about what is new here: the Open Secure AI Alliance itself is not new, it was announced on July 27, 2026. What is new is this SAFE proposal and the newest member contributions, announced as the annual Black Hat conference opened in Las Vegas.
Transcript
The Linux Foundation today published a proposal for companies to share what they learn from AI agent security incidents.
It is called SAFE, Shared AI Findings Exchange. It is a Request for Comments from an Open Secure AI Alliance working group, not an adopted standard.
The proposal would confidentially collect and analyze AI incidents and near misses, inform those impacted, and publish evidence based recommendations that reduce systemic risk.
The alliance launched last week and now has more than 120 organizations. NVIDIA, CrowdStrike and Red Hat are helping draft it. Amazon and Visa just joined.
