The Pentagon is deploying Anthropic’s ​Mythos cybersecurity model to find and patch software vulnerabilities ‌across the U.S. government even as it races to complete a transition away from the AI company, the Defense Department’s top technology official said on ​Tuesday. Announced on April 7, Mythos is being deployed as part ​of Anthropic’s “Project Glasswing,” a controlled initiative under which select organizations ⁠are permitted to use the unreleased Claude Mythos Preview model ​for defensive cybersecurity purposes. Mythos, according to Anthropic, is capable of detecting ​decades-old vulnerabilities in web browsers, infrastructure and software. Emil Michael, the Defense Department’s chief technology officer and under secretary for research and engineering, said the Pentagon continues ​to execute on its plan to remove Anthropic’s products from ​its work in the coming months.
