Putting frontier AI to work to strengthen defenses | IBM

As attackers increasingly use AI to speed up and scale cyberattacks, security teams are beginning to deploy frontier models of their own. One example is Claude’s Mythos Preview, a security-focused version of Claude designed to help identify and analyze software vulnerabilities.

IBM takes a multi-model approach to security—evaluating and deploying a mix of both traditional and AI-enabled tools based on their effectiveness, governance and risk controls. We’ve applied AI models, including frontier models such as Claude’s Mythos Preview to these capabilities across our defenses. For example:

• Detection and analysis. IBM is introducing AI to assist in identifying and prioritizing critical threats. Our goal is to reduce the time between detection and remediation as attackers automate more of the threat chain.
• Software lifecycle integration. IBM is working to embed AI-assisted capabilities across our software lifecycle to improve vulnerability assessment, software analysis,…
