Kraken parent company Payward joins Glasswing to use Claude Mythos to hunt for security vulnerabilit

Kraken's parent company joins Anthropic Cybersecurity Project, uses AI to search for vulnerabilities

Kraken's parent company Payward has joined Anthropic's "Project Glasswing" project and has begun using the Claude Mythos model to search for security vulnerabilities.

Previously, more than 40 bitcoin and cryptocurrency companies, including Kraken, jointly sent letters to leading artificial intelligence laboratories such as Anthropic and OpenAI, requiring these cutting-edge laboratories to open up trusted access projects to qualified security defenders to help defend against threats.

Payward said on Monday that the company will use Mythos 5 to scan its systems for vulnerabilities and submit any issues found to the security team for review. This is the first cryptocurrency company to publicly report joining the project and be approved to use Claude Mythos 5.

Payward said: "Being selected for this project gives Payward's security department early access to top-class models in its class, thereby enhancing its ability to respond to complex software vulnerabilities and protecting the security of millions of customers around the world."

The company also said vulnerabilities found in third-party open source software will be reported to project maintainers, adding that this approach helps protect its financial infrastructure and strengthens open source software used across the cryptocurrency industry.

"Project Glasswing" is Anthropic's cybersecurity project designed to give vetted organizations access to its most powerful network models. The project was launched in April and expanded in June, and its partners have so far discovered thousands of vulnerabilities of high or critical severity.

The news comes amid growing evidence that artificial intelligence models can be powerful tools for discovering and exploiting software vulnerabilities. In April, Mozilla reported that Anthropic's Claude Mythos had discovered 271 vulnerabilities in the Firefox browser during testing.

Last week, more than 40 bitcoin and cryptocurrency companies, including Ark Invest, Coinbase, Block and BitGo, called on major artificial intelligence laboratories to give qualified security researchers access to their most powerful models. The letter, organized by the Bitcoin Policy Institute, states that developers protecting open source financial infrastructure need access to cutting-edge artificial intelligence to discover and fix vulnerabilities before attackers exploit them.

"Security has always been an unfair game. An attacker only needs to find one vulnerability, while a defender must find all vulnerabilities at the first point of time of the day." Arjun Sethi, co-CEO of Payward, said,"Cutting edge artificial intelligence is the first tool to reverse this asymmetry. A model can read every line of code on a machine-scale like an attacker, discovering vulnerabilities before anyone builds an attack."
