American artificial intelligence company Anthropic has expanded the scope of its special cyber security project Project Glasswing. Now selected government and private institutions of more than 15 countries including India are being given access to this project.

The company claims that Project Glasswing has been prepared to make the world’s important software systems secure. Under this, with the help of AI, serious security flaws present in the software can be discovered very quickly, so that cyber criminals cannot take advantage of them.

Some government agencies and private organizations of India have also been given access to an advanced AI model named Claude Mythos Preview. This model is designed to identify vulnerabilities in software systems.

5 big things about Project Glasswing

Special AI project for cyber security
Anthropic has started Project Glasswing as a limited and high-security initiative. Its purpose is to make the software infrastructure secure and fix security flaws in time.

Claude Mythos Preview is its strength
The most important part of this project is the Claude Mythos Preview AI model. According to the company, this model can scan large amounts of code and identify many security vulnerabilities faster than humans.

World’s big tech companies also included
Big companies like Amazon, Apple, Microsoft, Google, Cisco, Cryptstrike and JPMorgan Chase are also involved in Project Glasswing. These organizations are strengthening the security of their software and critical systems with the help of AI models.

Claims to have found more than 10,000 serious flaws
Anthropic says that Claude Mythos Preview has so far identified more than 10,000 high and critical level security flaws. These also include vulnerabilities related to some major operating systems.

Expansion in more than 15 countries including India
The company had recently announced that Project Glasswing will be extended to about 150 institutions in more than 15 countries. These include countries like India, Australia, Canada, France, Germany and Italy. Earlier in April, only 50 institutions had got access to it.

Why is this project special?
Amidst the increasing threat of cyber attacks, the demand for AI based security systems is increasing rapidly. Project Glasswing is being considered a big step in this direction. Its purpose is to detect security flaws in advance and fix them, so that essential digital systems and infrastructure can remain safe.

Although some experts believe that the concerns raised about the hacking capabilities of AI are being exaggerated, this technology can bring a big change in the field of cyber security.
