Anthropic’s new AI model Mythos appears to reduce the gap between finding and exploiting software vulnerabilities, effectively compressing the “kill zone” for attackers and defenders alike.

Anthropic’s new AI model, Mythos, is being described as a cybersecurity tool after surfacing around 2,000 software flaws in just seven weeks. Its speed and ability to identify vulnerabilities with less human prompting could reshape security testing. But Anthropic is not yet making Mythos public, citing potential downstream risks and growing concerns about data exposure for users and companies.
