Anthropic CEO meets White House over federal access to Mythos AI
Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei will meet White House chief of staff Susie Wiles to discuss government access to the company's Mythos AI model, which can discover and exploit zero‑day vulnerabilities. The meeting follows a Pentagon‑imposed blacklist after Amodei refused to lift safety restrictions, while Treasury, intelligence agencies and CISA are already testing the model.

Why AI, Sovereignty and Visibility Are Redefining Cyber Strategy: Infotrust
Infotrust executives warn that data sovereignty, AI governance, and visibility are reshaping cyber strategy as geopolitical tensions and rapid AI adoption intensify risk. They highlight the rise of "shadow AI"—unsanctioned AI tools used by employees—while noting that vulnerability exploitation windows have shrunk from months to hours. The firm also stresses that many organisations already own sufficient security capabilities but lack the visibility to leverage them effectively. Integrating infrastructure and security functions is presented as essential to keep governance pace with technology adoption.
