# Making frontier cybersecurity capabilities available to defenders

# Claim

Claude Code Security , a new capability built into Claude Code on the web, is now available in a limited research preview. It scans codebases for security vulnerabilities and suggests targeted software patches for human review, allowing teams to find and fix security issues that traditional methods often miss. Security teams face a common challenge: too.

# Relevance

Appendix III, section one: model and benchmark capability evidence

# Oracle Verdict

This belongs in the register because benchmark and model-release claims set the ceiling for the next wave of deployment stories. The labour-market effect is indirect today, but it becomes direct when these gains are packaged into agents, APIs, and enterprise tools.
