The 3-Week AI Blackout: How Export Controls Create Cyber Dependency Risks

Cybersecurity teams must now assess a new vector of operational risk: reliance on AI models that can be remotely disabled by foreign governments. The sudden suspension of Anthropic's models demonstrates a single-point-of-failure that echoes critical infrastructure dependencies, while Chinese open-source alternatives present their own supply-chain security challenges.
