US cyber agency is using Anthropic’s Mythos to audit government code, sources say

The U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) is reportedly using Anthropic's AI model Mythos to audit government software code for potential security vulnerabilities that could expose sensitive systems to foreign adversaries. Three unnamed sources confirmed the use of Mythos, which is part of CISA's efforts to enhance cybersecurity through advanced AI tools. While Anthropic has not commented on the initiative, CISA has acknowledged reviewing the matter. The audit is conducted by CISA's Attack Surface Evaluation team, which specializes in digital security assessments. Sources indicated that the audits have identified numerous vulnerabilities, though specifics remain undisclosed. This development highlights the growing reliance on AI in government cybersecurity operations, despite ongoing tensions between Anthropic and U.S. authorities over issues like ethical AI use.

Bias read (Center): The article presents information about CISA's use of Anthropic's AI without overtly endorsing or criticizing either side. It reports on the technical application of AI in cybersecurity without taking a clear ideological stance. The framing remains neutral, focusing on facts rather than advocacy for或
