Anthropic says its Claude "Mythos" model (Project Glasswing) has found thousands of high-severity zero days and demonstrated advanced exploit chaining and sandbox escape, but will not be released publicly; it is being used with major partners and funded with up to $100M in credits plus $4M for open-source security. A postmortem details a North Korea–linked social-engineering supply-chain breach of Axios on NPM, part of a broader campaign spreading 1,700+ malicious packages across multiple ecosystems. US agencies warn Iranian-linked hackers are targeting Rockwell/Allen-Bradley PLCs in critical infrastructure. The White House proposes a $707M cut to CISA, reducing staffing while preserving $1.4B for core cybersecurity. 00:00 Headlines and Sponsor 00:55 Fortinet EMS Zero Day 03:21 AI Finds Zero Days 05:56 Axios Supply Chain Breach 08:02 North Korea Package Campaign 10:13 Iran Targets Industrial Control 12:22 CISA Budget Cuts Debate 14:05 Wrap Up and Thanks 14:59 Sponsor Message Meter
