Indian cyber, telecom, banking & finance firms get access to Mythos; IT left out

Several Indian organisations, both public and private, in the cyber, telecom, finance and banking industries have secured early access to US artificial intelligence firm Anthropic's highly guarded Claude Mythos model, top government officials said.

Their number currently remains in the single digits, they told ET on Wednesday, a day after Anthropic announced the expanded Project Glasswing cybersecurity initiative giving access to 150 more organisations to its most advanced frontier model. The list does not have any major Indian information technology firms, they said.

"The government is actively engaging with Anthropic to widen the access further," a senior official told ET.

The Indian government through select public entities will get a preview of Mythos, the official said. These entities may also include India's nodal cybersecurity agency CERT-In, for which the government had specifically sought access.
