Claude says Mythos 5 now available in Claude Security
In a blog update, Claude commented on its efforts to help more teams use frontier capabilities for cyber defense. "Claude Mythos 5 is now available in Claude Security, and coming soon to partners' cyber defense tools. We're also launching a $35M fund to help secure open-source software and sharing plans to expand our Cyber Verification Program. The riskiest behavior occurs when a user has direct access to a model, where a malicious actor can try to steer it toward harmful uses. But if users can only receive specific outputs, such as a patch for a vulnerability or a security alert, that risk is much lower. The changes we're announcing give users greater access to the defensive results, while maintaining appropriate guardrails around direct access to the model: Claude Mythos 5 integration into the tools defenders rely on. We're working with our cybersecurity technology and services partners to integrate Claude Mythos 5 into the products and services defenders already use to secure their software. Claude Security scans can now run on Claude Mythos 5. Customers on Claude Enterprise plans can now run our most capable model in Claude Security, using it to scan their codebases for security vulnerabilities and suggest patches.$35M in credits for open-source security. Our new Defender Advantage Fund will provide $35M in credits to organizations working to patch vulnerabilities in open-source projects, automate parts of the process of scanning and patching open-source software, and experiment with new security approaches. Expanding our Cyber Verification Program. The program already gives vetted defenders reduced safeguards on Opus and Sonnet models. In the coming weeks, we will expand this program to include broader dual-use capabilities on Opus and Sonnet, with Mythos-class access to follow... We will continue to work with government partners, organizations, open-source maintainers, and the broader industry to build the resilient cyber infrastructure today's highly capable AI models demand."
