Nextgov reports that operational technology (OT) providers and industry groups have pressed Anthropic for access to the Mythos Preview cybersecurity model after an initial rollout focused on major tech and finance firms, according to four people familiar with the discussions. Nextgov says OT representatives voiced frustration during recent roundtables and listening sessions about being left out of Project Glasswing, Anthropic’s initiative with major companies designed to secure critical software. Two of the sources told Nextgov the processes for granting OT firms access are ongoing. Nextgov reports that one participant said, “There’s definitely an annoyance in the OT world.” Nextgov has asked Anthropic, the Office of the National Cyber Director, and American Water for comment. The article frames the disagreement as highlighting challenges to building an industrywide push to patch cyber vulnerabilities affecting critical infrastructure.
