  1. Bank of America hired 1,000 contractors to patch flaws exposed by Anthropic's Mythos

    Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan said on 14 October, in a CNBC interview and on the bank's earnings call, that it brought in about 1,000 outside contractors in the second quarter to patch software vulnerabilities exposed by AI models including Anthropic's Mythos, on top of roughly 3,000 internal staff already doing similar work. He said the contractors were hired as consultants and are not counted in headcount, and that the weaknesses lay in code used by the bank and its outside vendors. Moynihan said third-quarter remediation costs, covering both the Mythos work and anti-money-laundering fixes, came to "a couple hundred million dollars plus," without breaking out the patching figure alone, and said he expects the Mythos share to shrink. The Next Web said it had not independently verified the numbers; Anthropic made Mythos available in April through Project Glasswing to a small group of companies, banks and government agencies.

  2. Anthropic's free OSS Scanner: who audits the auditor?

    On Oct 8, 2026, Anthropic launched two free arrangements under the name Anthropic Cyber Mission: the Critical Infrastructure Defense Program (CIDP), which puts frontier Claude models, embedded engineers and threat research behind 11 founding partners including Accenture, CrowdStrike, Deloitte, Palo Alto Networks, PwC and Rockwell Automation to protect power-grid, water and transport OT systems; and OSS Scanner, a free opt-in service using Anthropic's strongest models, including Claude Mythos, to scan open-source projects. The piece says the models found over 29,000 candidate vulnerabilities in six months, with only about 6,000 human-reviewed and nearly 5,000 unverified reports plus candidate patches sent straight to maintainers, and that fast-track findings are neither subject to a 90-day disclosure window nor published. It argues the structural problem is one company being model vendor, open-source auditor, critical-infrastructure gatekeeper and arbiter of what counts as a vulnerability, citing VulnCheck's September comparison in which Claude rated 91.5% of findings high or critical versus maintainers' 51.3%.

  3. Palo Alto report: 68% of critical-infrastructure orgs lack OT asset visibility

    Palo Alto Networks' 2026 Critical Infrastructure Cybersecurity Report says 68% of organizations still have gaps in OT asset visibility. The report lists four main critical-infrastructure security problems, including legacy OT systems, fragmented security tools and IT/OT integration challenges. It also says AI adoption in these environments is concentrated in a small number of scenarios.

  4. Trump's new AI czar Jay Clayton heads to Silicon Valley to meet Huang and Altman

    Bloomberg reports that Director of National Intelligence Jay Clayton, Trump's newly appointed point person on AI, will travel to Silicon Valley to meet Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei and Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg. It is his first meeting with tech leaders since taking charge of a new team coordinating federal AI policy, following a White House lunch where AI developers signed a voluntary safety agreement and Trump's subsequent announcement that Clayton would lead a "Super Intelligence Force" reporting to him and chief of staff Susie Wiles. Speaking to CNBC, Clayton said models must have control and monitoring mechanisms acceptable to developers, enterprises and the American public, and defended using existing liability law as the main tool for holding the industry accountable.

  5. Anthropic launches Cyber Mission, including free OSS Scanner

    Anthropic announced on October 8 the Anthropic Cyber Mission, a long-term effort starting with two areas: critical infrastructure and open-source software. The Critical Infrastructure Defense Program gives defenders of power grids, water systems and transport networks access to frontier models, on-site engineers and threat research, with 11 founding partners including CrowdStrike, Palo Alto Networks, Deloitte, Rockwell Automation and Hitachi. The companion OSS Scanner offers opt-in open-source projects free periodic scans whose reports are fully model-generated with no human review or triage, so findings may be incorrect; Anthropic said about 88% of 97 critical and high-severity findings checked across 48 projects met disclosure criteria, while other reports cite the company expecting more than 90%.
