Claude for Enterprise powers LLNL research

Summary

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) is expanding Claude for Enterprise access to its entire laboratory, reaching about 10,000 scientists, researchers, and staff. The deployment is intended to support work in nuclear deterrence, energy, materials science, and energy security, with applications spanning emergency response, fusion research, advanced manufacturing, computational biology, and high-performance computing. Claude’s government-oriented security features include single sign-on, audit logging, role-based access controls, end-to-end encryption, and an expanded context window that can process hundreds of documents, codebases exceeding 100,000 lines, or complex datasets in one query. The expansion follows a pilot, an AI Jam with U.S. National Labs, and a March aiEDGE for Innovation Day attended by approximately 3,200 LLNL scientists and operational staff.
