Broadridge joins Anthropic's Project Glasswing on security
Wed, 17th Jun 2026 (Today)
Broadridge has joined Anthropic's Project Glasswing, an initiative focused on using advanced AI models to improve software security.
The company said its role reflects its focus on cybersecurity in financial services, where software resilience is closely tied to market operations and client communications.
Project Glasswing brings together organisations that build or maintain software used in critical infrastructure, including the financial sector. Anthropic said participants will use Claude Mythos Preview, an unreleased model, in defensive security work across foundational systems.
For Broadridge, the move places it within a broader industry effort to address cyber risks in shared software infrastructure. The project is intended to help strengthen systems that form part of a broad global attack surface.
Broadridge processes and generates more than 7 billion communications each year. Its technology and operations platforms also support average daily trading of more than USD $15 trillion in tokenised and traditional securities globally.
Cyber focus
Broadridge framed the partnership around the stability of financial markets, where disruption to software and communications systems can have wider consequences. That makes cyber defence a board-level issue for infrastructure providers and service companies across the sector.
"Cybersecurity is fundamental to the resilience of financial markets," said Tim Gokey, Chief Executive Officer, Broadridge.
He linked the company's participation to its internal security work and the need to respond to changing threats. "We are participating in Project Glasswing to apply frontier AI models to our own systems, helping us stay ahead of emerging threats and supporting a safer financial ecosystem," Gokey said.
Industry backdrop
Financial institutions and the technology suppliers that serve them face growing pressure to secure software supply chains, internal code bases and shared infrastructure. AI tools have become part of that discussion, as companies explore whether large models can help identify weaknesses, support testing and improve defensive monitoring.
Anthropic's project is aimed at organisations responsible for software used in critical systems. By focusing on builders and maintainers of core infrastructure, the initiative targets areas where a flaw or breach could affect multiple companies or sectors at once.
Broadridge employs more than 15,000 people across 21 countries and is part of the S&P 500 index. Its scale in investor communications, governance and trading-related operations means its cybersecurity decisions carry weight for a large financial services client base.
According to Broadridge, participants in Project Glasswing will work to strengthen defensive security efforts across foundational systems that represent a significant share of the world's shared cyberattack surface.
The announcement also highlights how AI is increasingly being positioned as a tool for defensive cybersecurity rather than solely for productivity or automation.
As cyber threats become more sophisticated, financial infrastructure providers are looking for new ways to detect vulnerabilities before they can be exploited. Collaboration between technology developers and major industry operators is becoming a common approach to strengthening resilience across interconnected systems. Initiatives such as Project Glasswing reflect a growing recognition that cybersecurity challenges often extend beyond individual organisations and require collective action.
The outcomes of the project may also help shape how advanced AI models are deployed in security-sensitive industries in the years ahead.
