US government bans foreign access to Mythos 5 and Fable 5
Commerce Department orders Anthropic to bar foreign nationals from accessing its two cutting-edge models after vulnerabilities are found in safety guardrails. Anthropic disables global access in response.
An AI red-teaming exercise using Anthropic’s Mythos model identified vulnerabilities across almost all classified U.S. government networks in hours, compressing the traditional weeks-long security audit timetable. The finding points to a future where autonomous vulnerability scanners could dominate cyber defense and offense.
Anthropic's Mythos 5, its 'strongest cybersecurity model,' will be redeployed to a small group of US cyber defenders and infrastructure providers after a two-week government ban. The move signals a new era of government-gated access to advanced AI for national security applications.
