The Register reports that in a Tuesday cabinet meeting the PM instructed cybersecurity minister Hisashi Matsumoto to check government systems for detectable vulnerabilities and to develop measures so critical infrastructure operators can do likewise. The Register reports the PM said <span class=\"font-medium text-neutral-900\">Mythos<\/span> and similar frontier models may be misused and could increase the speed and scale of attacks. The Register also reports researchers are divided over how novel or dangerous <span class=\"font-medium text-neutral-900\">Mythos<\/span> is compared with prior open-source tools. Editorial analysis: Governments are increasingly treating high-capability bug-finding models as a trigger to reassess infrastructure defence posture.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/letsdatascience.com\/news\/japan-pm-orders-cybersecurity-review-over-mythos-ae1f7afd\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Japan PM Orders Cybersecurity Review Over Mythos https:\/\/letsdatascience.com\/news\/japan-pm-orders-cybersecurity-review-over-mythos-ae1f7afd Publish Date: 2026-05-12 01:40:00 Source Domain: letsdatascience.com&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":244240,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/image.theregister.com\/5238519.jpg?imageId=5238519&x=0&y=0&cropw=100&croph=100&panox=0&panoy=0&panow=100&panoh=100&width=1200&height=683","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[24],"class_list":["post-244238","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cybersecurity","tag-cybersecurity"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/244238"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=244238"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/244238\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":244241,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/244238\/revisions\/244241"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/244240"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=244238"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=244238"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=244238"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
