Customers get Mythos through the vendors' tools, not the model itself; version 5.2 also launched with lower token prices.

Anthropic is extending Mythos, its bug-finding model, into Cisco and IBM security products without handing customers the model. Cisco said AI Defense can call Mythos to test customers' models, agents, and applications under existing licenses at no extra cost. IBM said Concert will use it to find weaknesses scanners miss, judge real risk, and draft fixes for approval. Anthropic also released Mythos 5.2 and Fable 5.2, which it says run up to 30 percent faster than 5.1 at lower token prices.

Unconfirmed: Anthropic has not said whether these deals broaden Mythos access, and its claim that Chinese labs distill its models is the company's belief.

Key facts
  • Cisco announced the AI Defense integration at an event in Melbourne.
  • Mythos first reached vetted buyers through Anthropic's Project Glasswing program.
  • Version 5.2 lists $8 per million input tokens and $40 per million output tokens.
  • Fast mode raises speed up to 2.5 times and doubles those token prices.
  • Anthropic says 5.2 cyber and biology safeguards match 5.1 with fewer unnecessary blocks.
