Atlantis Infrastructure
The AIxCC competition is not just about creating automated bug-finding and patching techniques – it is about building a cyber reasoning system (CRS) that can do both without any human assistance. To succeed, a CRS must excel in four critical infrastructure areas: Reliability: Run continuously for weeks without intervention. Scalability: Handle many challenge projects concurrently. Budget Utilization: Maximize Azure cloud and LLM credit usage. Submission Management: Consistently deliver valid proof-of-vulnerability blobs (POVs), Patches, SARIF assessments, and Bundles. In this post, we will share how we designed the infrastructure of our CRS, Atlantis, to meet these keys and make it as robust as possible. We could not have won AIxCC without the exceptional work of our infrastructure team.
AIxCC Final and Team Atlanta
Two years after its first announcement at DEF CON 31, our team stood on stage as the winners of the AIxCC Final—a moment we had been working toward since the competition began. Yet when we heard we placed 1st, relief overshadowed excitement. Why? While competing head-to-head with world-class teams like Theori was a privilege, the real-time, long-running nature of this competition demanded extreme engineering reliability alongside novel approaches to succeed.
