  • Mythos, deemed too dangerous for public release, is being selectively shared with major banks and tech firms due to its advanced cybersecurity capabilities.
  • Global regulators and finance leaders have expressed concern over Mythos’s potential for both defending and exploiting critical digital infrastructure.

What stops a rival nation or actor from developing their own version of Mythos within the next year?
How does the NSA justify using a tool that its own Pentagon has officially labeled a 'supply-chain risk'?
