In an ironic development, software developed to detect vulnerabilities in other software has itself been breached.

Anthropic's latest AI technology, called Mythos, is so powerful at revealing software vulnerabilities that the company is afraid to release the model publicly lest it fall into the hands of bad actors.

Assail, Inc. is steering ahead in the cybersecurity realm with the launch of Ares, an innovative platform utilizing autonomous AI agents aimed at transforming offensive security testing. This platform offers continuous penetration testing capabilities, ensuring organizations have a robust defense against potential vulnerabilities.

The future of space superiority relies as much on networks and data as it does on assets in orbit. This was the overarching message of Space Systems Command’s (SSC) Cyber Expo keynote delivered by Charleen Laughlin, U.S. Space Force deputy chief of Space Operations for Cyber and Data.

Anthropic is investigating a possible breach of Mythos, a new model the artificial intelligence company rolled out to a small pool of companies earlier this month to help them detect software vulnerabilities.
