British experts warned that gains in AI models&#8217; cyber capabilities appear to be accelerating.<\/p>\n<p>See Also: Context Drives Security in Agentic AI Era<\/p>\n<p>Frank Elderson, vice-chair of the ECB supervisory board, said in a Wednesday regulatory newsletter that European banks&#8217; current lack of access to Anthropic&#8217;s Mythos &#8211; the model whose appearance sparked the current wave of panic over AI that can quickly find and exploit vulnerabilities &#8211; was &#8220;not an excuse for inaction.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;On the contrary, it makes it even more critical that banks step up and act now,&#8221; Elderson said. He called for &#8220;bank-specific, risk-based&#8221; action in line with the Digital Operational Resilience Act, a cybersecurity law specific to the European financial sector. &#8220;Banks need to redouble their efforts to identify vulnerabilities, even minor ones, using existing AI tools. And their approach to patching needs to be changed&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bankinfosecurity.com\/ecb-ai-means-european-banks-must-hasten-cybersecurity-pace-a-31691\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ECB: AI Means European Banks Must Hasten Cybersecurity Pace https:\/\/www.bankinfosecurity.com\/ecb-ai-means-european-banks-must-hasten-cybersecurity-pace-a-31691 Publish Date: 2026-05-14 15:24:00 Source&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":247663,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/ismg-cdn.nyc3.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com\/articles\/ecb-ai-means-european-banks-must-hasten-cybersecurity-pace-image_large-3-a-31691.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[20,57],"class_list":["post-247662","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cybersecurity","tag-artificial-intelligence","tag-security"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/247662"}],"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=247662"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/247662\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":247664,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/247662\/revisions\/247664"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/247663"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=247662"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=247662"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=247662"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
