AI giant Anthropic has unveiled Project Glasswing, a cybersecurity initiative built around Claude Mythos Preview, a model it describes as “cybersecurity in the age of AI” that can autonomously identify software vulnerabilities at scale.
Rather than release the model publicly, Anthropic is restricting access to a closed consortium of more than 40 companies that includes Amazon, Microsoft, Apple, Alphabet-owned Google, and the Linux Foundation, along with a small group of security vendors such as CrowdStrike, Palo Alto Networks, and Cisco.
“Mythos makes the first domino clearer: Once frontier AI can do large-scale bug hunting, the logic of paying humans for routine discovery starts to break down,” says Jeff Williams, founder of OWASP and CTO of Contrast Security.
