Anthropic’s Mythos model and AWS Threat Intelligence’s FortiGate campaign show that AI-powered attacks are now operating at machine speed, exposing the limits of traditional defense timelines. The article argues that security teams must move from basic visibility and protection to continuous, evidence-based validation with BAS and autonomous pentesting. #Anthropic #Mythos #AWSThreatIntelligence #FortiGate #CISAKEV #VulnCheckKEV
Keypoints
- Mythos generated 181 working Firefox exploits in 14 days and uncovered thousands of zero-days.
- The AWS Threat Intelligence FortiGate campaign reached 2,516 devices in 106 countries in minutes per target.
- The median CVE-to-exploit window has collapsed to about 10 hours.
- Security teams need three pillars: identify, protect, and validate.
- BAS and autonomous pentesting should run together in a continuous, evidence-based validation loop.
