Anthropic Keeps Mythos Preview Open to 200 Early Users Despite US Shutdown Order

Summary
Roughly 200 organizations in Anthropic’s Project Glasswing still have access to Mythos Preview, even after a US government order shut down other versions of the AI system.
Banks and technology firms are among the remaining users because Anthropic had already cleared them to test the model for cyber-vulnerability hunting ahead of a broader release.
Cisco confirmed it has retained access, and Dragos CTO Jon Lavender said his company can still use the preview, underscoring that the carveout extends beyond a small pilot group.
The continued access suggests the US order did not fully halt all Mythos use, leaving a restricted channel open for selected early testers.
