Introduction We present an alignment assessment of four incidents in which Claude models gained unauthorized access to real third-party systems.
Claude Mythos 5 uploads a malicious PyPI package Claude Mythos 5 was given a CTF task to hack a fictional company and was told it had no internet access.
Claude Mythos 5 was significantly more likely than Claude Opus 5 and Claude Mythos 5.1 to engage in these kinds of behaviors.
Across all replications, Claude Mythos 5 performed worse than all of our other production models, including Claude Opus 5 and Claude Mythos 5.1.
We found that in individual environments in the production RL runs of recent models, models occasionally reasoned that they were in a simulation while calling reckless, dishonest, or destructive behavior acceptable when interacting with fake websites or applications.

Amazon elected Kevin Mandia to its Board of Directors on September 8.
Mandia founded Mandiant and served as its CEO before Google acquired the firm in September 2022, and he has worked against cyber threats in the public and private sectors for more than 30 years.
Amazon called cybersecurity “one of the most consequential risks and responsibilities organizations face today,” and pointed to advances in AI as the reason the threat landscape keeps moving.
That is the company’s stated reason for putting the expertise at board level, where directors decide which questions management has to answer.
Ballistic Ventures keeps Mandia close to the companies being built now, and Armadin keeps him running one.

After the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, heightened concern over the security of the nation's food and water led to more protective measures.
At the time, the Western Virginia Water Authority didn’t exist — it was created in 2004, when the city of Roanoke and Roanoke County consolidated their water and wastewater operations.
The water authority has also partnered with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, or CISA, for several years.
Plus, you can still tour a facility, as long as you call the water authority and set something up first.
Shirley said the water authority values getting to show people how the system works.

WASHINGTON — The FBI on Wednesday said it intends to formalize and speed up its collaborative takedowns of malicious hacking activity.
As part of the new strategy, FBI teams focused on countering specific threats, from Russia to China to cybercriminals, will develop their own customized plans.
The FBI has seen a reduction in companies’ willingness to share information over the past few years, a continuation of a long-running trend.
Expanding hacking partnerships A major theme of the FBI’s cyber strategy is the bureau’s desire to partner with more organizations on disruption operations.
Meanwhile, the FBI’s new strategy envisions the bureau’s own disruptive operations increasing in frequency and scope.

He is the public policy and external affairs program director with the University of Maryland, Baltimore’s Center for Cyber, Health and Hazard Strategies.
His comments come just days after Luminis Health facilities last week announced a “cyber incident by an unauthorized criminal actor” that disrupted certain medical appointments and services.
Luminis hospitals remained open while an investigation into the attack continues, but some of their systems were nonoperational, which could impact appointments and services.
But Luminis is just the latest example in what seems to be a rise in cybersecurity threats facing the healthcare industry.
“It’s [the Luminis attack] adding to a series of disturbing incidents going back 10 years to the MedStar cyber incident.”

Whole-of-state cybersecurity strategies have increased as well, with 73 percent of respondents reporting that critical infrastructure cyber protection is part of their state’s plan.
Grant programs point to another challenge, which is how to pay for robust state cybersecurity long term.
Almost every state CISO interviewed for this report expressed concern about the future of federal cybersecurity funding, such as the State and Local Cybersecurity Grant Program.
The report warns that without sustained federal investment, progress made through whole-of-state programs could stall, leaving states to identify other ways to maintain services for local governments and critical infrastructure.
While challenges are not likely to go away, the report gives detailed steps about how states can influence and formalize local and critical infrastructure cybersecurity.

Michael Ellis, the deputy director of the CIA, said the spy agency is seeking to recruit more employees with backgrounds in science and technology.
“When I think about, you know, where we want the CIA workforce to be five years from now, it’s an elite workforce,” Ellis said at the Billington Cybersecurity Summit in Washington on Tuesday.
It’s one that has more technical background than it has today, and it’s one that is motivated by mission.”
“It means we need a different kind of workforce,” Ellis said.
Earlier this year, CIA Director John Ratcliffe announced a major reorganization of the agency’s technology centers, as well new acquisition and industry partnership initiatives.

Can't find what you're looking for? View all search results We have the blueprints to defend our digital sovereignty, but without real enforcement power, adequate funding and urgency on AI and quantum threats, the next massive breach is already penciled in. cross Southeast Asia, rapid digitization has quietly rewritten the rules of state legitimacy and national defense. How each government handles cybersecurity reveals who is actively building resilience and who is simply improvising under pressure. Singapore set the regional standard early. Since launching its Cyber Security Agency in 2015, the city-state has systematically built a cohesive ecosystem of clear laws, skilled personnel and global partnerships. Malaysia took a pragmatic operational path, dividing responsibilities between CyberSecurity Malaysia and the National Cyber Security Agency while leaning on strong public-private coordination. Thailand and Vietnam moved aggressively on legislation, passing sweeping frameworks in 2019 and 2018 that allowed them to scale their institutional defenses quickly. Meanwhile, Cambodia, Laos and Myanmar are still establishing baseline Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT) capabilities and early legal structures. Then there is Indonesia: caught awkwardly between genuine ambition and persistent structural vulnerability. On paper, Jakarta has made notable progress. Consolidating national cybersecurity authority under the National Cyber and Crypto Agency (BSSN) in 2017 brought critical infrastructure protection, cryptographic standards and incident response under one roof. The passage of the Personal Data Protection (PDP) Law in 2022 signaled that lawmakers finally grasped the scale of the digital economy they needed to protect. The actual track record, however, tells an uncomfortable story that diplomatic language cannot soften. In 2021 alone, a breach at national health insurance provider BPJS Kesehatan exposed the personal data of roughly 279 million citizens, followed quickly by the leak of 2.3 million voter records from the General Elections Commission. The following year saw major data exposures at

- Government systems face stronger cybersecurity safeguards. - Stakeholders are testing new risk assessment tools. - Framework gaps are being addressed before certification. Kenya is stepping up efforts to protect government digital systems and Critical Information Infrastructure (CII) from cybersecurity threats that could disrupt essential services, compromise sensitive information and undermine confidence in the country’s rapidly expanding digital economy. More public services and critical operations are moving onto interconnected digital platforms, raising the stakes and the need for institutions to identify vulnerabilities early, assess their exposure and put in place coordinated measures to manage cyber risks. Against this backdrop, the ICT Authority, through the Kenya Digital Economy Acceleration Project (KDEAP), has convened a weeklong stakeholder workshop in Nairobi to assess the status and progress of the Vulnerability Assessment for National ICT Cybersecurity Risk and Critical Information Infrastructure project. This initiative seeks to establish a common national approach to cybersecurity risk management across the public sector and nationally designated CII. Stakeholders are reviewing the standards, controls, tools and operational frameworks outlined in the National Cybersecurity Strategy. Once endorsed, the measures are expected to be adopted uniformly across the public sector and nationally designated CII. Also under scrutiny is whether the proposed framework is practical enough for national implementation before certification begins. Participants are assessing the practicality of the proposed standards and certification process, including the skills, resources and time institutions will require to use the National Information Security Framework Audit and Risk Register Toolkit s effectively. READ ALSO: Beyond that, stakeholders are examining gaps and inconsistencies in the framework documents, control wording, scoring methodology and supporting toolkits. Addressing these weaknesses before national certification is actualised is critical to ensuring that institutions apply the framework consistently and that cybersecurity assessments provide a reliable picture of the risks facing government systems and critical

Rockwell Automation Announces New Cybersecurity Season of ROKStudios Video Series New season features global manufacturers and cybersecurity leaders sharing recent research and practical strategies for building resilient, secure industrial operations MILTON KEYNES, England, Sept. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Rockwell Automation, the world's largest company dedicated to industrial automation and digital transformation, today announced a new cybersecurity-focused season of ROKStudios, its thought leadership video series featuring in-depth interviews with customers and Rockwell Automation consultants. The latest season explores how manufacturers are strengthening cyber resilience as connected operations, IT/OT convergence and increasing threat activity reshape operational risk. Drawing on insights from Rockwell's 11th Annual State of Smart Manufacturing Report the series highlights how organizations are moving from awareness to execution in securing industrial environments. "Organizations are operating in a more complex and connected environment than ever before," said John Speakman, director of cybersecurity services, EMEA, Rockwell Automation. "Cybersecurity has become fundamental to operational resilience. These discussions highlight how manufacturers can move beyond compliance toward building the capabilities needed to manage risk, maintain continuity and secure their operations at scale." Recent research shows that cybersecurity is now a central pillar of resilience, with nearly half of manufacturers reporting a cyber incident in the past year and rising exposure driven by increased connectivity between IT and operational technology environments. The research also underscores that cyber risk is no longer episodic but an ongoing operational requirement as manufacturers scale AI, automation and connected systems. Season highlights include: - Andrew Peckston, head of supply chain cybersecurity and infrastructure, Mondelēz International: Discusses how manufacturers are elevating cybersecurity to a strategic business priority, embedding it into supply chain strategy and aligning IT and OT teams to strengthen resilience across global operations. - Steve Lynn, director of engineering, William Grant & Sons: Shares a practical perspective on building OT
