This in turn leads to \u201casymmetric benefits\u201d for attackers who can afford to adopt the technology without the same caution and bureaucracy as a multi-billion dollar business.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe cost and capability floor to exploit discovery is dropping, the time between disclosure and weaponization is compressing toward zero, and capabilities that previously required nation-state resources are now becoming broadly accessible,\u201d wrote Robert Lee, SANS Institute\u2019s Chief AI Officer, Gadi Evron, CEO of Knostic and Rich Mogull, chief analyst at CSA, who served as the primary authors.<\/p>\n<p>The report marks one of the first comprehensive responses to the capabilities of Claude Mythos from the U.S., boasting cybersecurity luminaries who have set policy at the highest levels as contributing authors, including Jen Easterly, former director of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, Rob Joyce, a former top White House and NSA cybersecurity official, and Chris Inglis, former National Cyber Director.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>It also includes private sector stalwarts like Heather Adkins, Google\u2019s CISO, Katie Moussouris, CEO of Luta Security, and Sounil Yu, chief technology officer at Knostic. Another seventy CISOs, CTOs and other security executives are named as editors and reviewers.<\/p>\n<p>Also this week, the UK\u2019s AI Security Institute (AISI) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.aisi.gov.uk\/blog\/our-evaluation-of-claude-mythos-previews-cyber-capabilities\">detailed<\/a> the results of tests it performed on a preview version of Claude Mythos, calling it a \u201cstep up\u201d from past Anthropic models in the cybersecurity arena and able to \u201cexecute multi-stage attacks on vulnerable networks and discover and exploit vulnerabilities autonomously.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Using a mix of Capture the Flag exercises and cyber range testing, AISI researchers found that Mythos not only raised the ceiling of technical non-experts and apprentice-level users, it narrowed the overall gap in hacking proficiency between the two. In other words, there\u2019s becoming less of a distinction between the capabilities of amateur \u201cscript kiddies\u201d and mid-level hackers with technical knowledge.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"349\" width=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/ddi.mohflo.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/heres-how-cyber-heavyweights-in-the-us-and-uk-are-dealing-with-claude-mythos.png?resize=640%2C349&#038;ssl=1\" alt class=\"wp-image-88580\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ddi.mohflo.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/heres-how-cyber-heavyweights-in-the-us-and-uk-are-dealing-with-claude-mythos-2.png 1432w, https:\/\/ddi.mohflo.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/heres-how-cyber-heavyweights-in-the-us-and-uk-are-dealing-with-claude-mythos-2.png?resize=300,163 300w, https:\/\/ddi.mohflo.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/heres-how-cyber-heavyweights-in-the-us-and-uk-are-dealing-with-claude-mythos-2.png?resize=768,418 768w, https:\/\/ddi.mohflo.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/heres-how-cyber-heavyweights-in-the-us-and-uk-are-dealing-with-claude-mythos-2.png?resize=1024,558 1024w, https:\/\/ddi.mohflo.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/heres-how-cyber-heavyweights-in-the-us-and-uk-are-dealing-with-claude-mythos-2.png?resize=600,327 600w, https:\/\/ddi.mohflo.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/heres-how-cyber-heavyweights-in-the-us-and-uk-are-dealing-with-claude-mythos-2.png?resize=1200,654 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Claude Mythos and other Large Language Models are increasing the capabilities of both lower and mid-level hackers when it comes to solving cybersecurity-specific tasks and challenges.

The US authors call for organizations to more quickly adopt AI for cyber defense while overhauling their incident response playbooks and corporate policies to account for more automated defense postures.<\/p>\n<p>For its part, Anthropic has said it is not selling Mythos commercially, and last week it announced the model would be <a href=\"https:\/\/cyberscoop.com\/project-glasswing-anthropic-ai-open-source-software-vulnerabilities\/\">made available to Project Glasswing<\/a>, a consortium of major tech companies that will use it to root out and patch vulnerabilities in commonly used products and services. <\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>But other experts have warned that businesses and governments are not well-positioned to either absorb the influx of expected vulnerability exploitation or deftly harness AI tools of their own to counter them.<\/p>\n<p>Casey Ellis, CTO and founder of Bugcrowd, <a href=\"https:\/\/cje.io\/2026\/04\/08\/offense-scales-with-compute-defense-scales-with-committees\/\">wrote<\/a> that recent advances in AI cyber tools has succeeded largely by \u201cliving in the places we stopped looking a decade ago.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>While the cybersecurity community has spent years focusing on application security, vulnerability triage and other \u201ctop layer\u201d security problems, AI tools and apex level hacking groups have been feasting on vulnerabilities in forgotten firmware, or routers whose manufacturers long went out of business.<\/p>\n<p>This reality that tools like Mythos can endlessly weaponize the massive technical debt of large organizations has taken the traditional defender\u2019s dilemma and \u201cthe knob that used to go to ten and turned it to seven hundred,\u201d Ellis wrote.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, corporations and governments run on consensus-building, multiple layers of hierarchy and legal compliance. While those are all necessary when handing your cybersecurity over to automated tooling, it can also lead to a slower process and more asymmetry against defenders in the short term.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cIntegration into actual production becomes the battlezone,\u201d wrote Ellis. \u201cLag is real.
