Expanded Access to Claude Mythos 5
Claude Mythos 5, an advanced AI model for cybersecurity, is now integrated into Claude Security for enterprise customers. This allows users to scan codebases for vulnerabilities and receive patch suggestions. The model is also being integrated into cybersecurity tools from various partners, making its capabilities accessible through existing defensive platforms.
Safeguarding AI for Defensive Use
The expansion of Claude Mythos 5 follows Project Glasswing, which initially provided the model to a select group of organizations to identify and fix vulnerabilities. The company has developed safety classifiers and safeguards to allow broader access to Mythos-class models, focusing on providing defensive outputs while restricting direct access that could lead to malicious use.
