AI agents can now break into realistic enterprise networks on their own. A capability once limited to trusted-access programs is available to anyone.
Today we’re releasing Vals CyberOffense.

An open weightsA model whose trained parameters are published for anyone to download and run — unlike API-only models you can access but never possess.Full definition → model nearly matches a restricted-access cyber model at autonomous network intrusion for under $3 per run, so access controls on frontier models do not bound offensive capability. Defenders can use the same models to test their own systems now.

benchmark — A standard public test set for comparing AI models — the shared scoreboards behind every "model X beats model Y" claim.
open weights — A model whose trained parameters are published for anyone to download and run — unlike API-only models you can access but never possess.
token — The chunk of text a model reads and writes in — roughly three-quarters of a word — and the unit AI usage is billed in.
