Microsoft taps Anthropic’s Mythos to strengthen secure software development

Microsoft is integrating Anthropic's Mythos, an advanced AI model, into its Security Development Lifecycle to help find software vulnerabilities (security flaws in code) and strengthen code earlier in development. While this move signals that AI is becoming central to how major software companies build secure products, analysts note that powerful AI models like Mythos could also make it faster for attackers to find and exploit vulnerabilities, raising concerns about the dual-use nature of these tools.
