This month we need to talk about something big. Not doomsday big, but pay-attention-now big.
On April 7th, Anthropic quietly previewed an AI model called Claude Mythos. They tested it against every major operating system and browser and it found critical vulnerabilities in all of them. The compute cost to find a 27-year-old flaw that decades of expert human audits had missed? About $50. They locked Mythos down immediately and formed a coalition called Project Glasswing, pulling in roughly 40 to 50 of the world’s largest software providers, including Microsoft, Google, Apple, Amazon, and Cisco, to patch what Mythos found before the wrong people find it first.
Here is the part that matters to you and your team.
Project Glasswing covers 40 to 50 organizations. Your business runs on hundreds of software tools built by vendors who are not in that coalition. Everyone is about to face a flood of vulnerability disclosures, shorter patching windows, and pressures they have never seen before. Some analysts are comparing this moment to Y2K, a concentrated scramble that eventually gets resolved. CyberHoot is in this camp. We can overcome this coming storm, and when we come out the other side, software will be forever changed!
The time to prepare is now, not after the first breach makes the news.
The good news is this: a trained, alert team is still the best defense you have. Patching windows must shrink while defensive scanning with advanced AI tools must start. Encourage employees to report suspicious activity (without fear), and keep sharp through regular training.
That is exactly what we are here to help you build.
This month we are covering three threats your team needs to understand right now.
In Claude Mythos Opened Pandora’s Box. Project Glasswing Is Racing to Close It, we break down what this AI watershed moment means for your organization and what practical steps to take now.
In When the “CEO” Calls and Asks You to Move Money Fast, we look at voice-based impersonation attacks that succeed because they sound real, feel urgent, and move faster than most employees are trained to question.
In When the Attack Looks Just Like You, we examine how attackers are impersonating trusted people, familiar brands, and normal business behavior to slip past suspicion entirely.
The storm may be manageable. But only if you start preparing before it arrives.
Read on.
