The program helps the agency infiltrate target networks. According to a Financial Times report, the company sent 6 of its own engineers to the agency. The specialists provide system adaptation and technical support. This cooperation unfolds amid an ongoing legal dispute with the Pentagon. The Department of Defense evaluated the company as a “supply chain risk,” but the agency retained exempted access to Mythos. The company previously stated that this model proved too powerful for hacking operations. Reporter Thomas Macaulay indicates that an unauthorized group gained access to the Mythos source code. Meanwhile, the company expanded access to Mythos to 150 organizations operating across 15 countries. President Trump signed an executive order regarding AI safety testing.
