Govt Agencies, Private Companies Among Indian Entities To Gain Access To Anthropic's Mythos Published By, Last Updated: June 07, 2026, 10:38 IST Anthropic has granted a few Indian organisations access to its AI-powered cybersecurity programme while warning that future AI systems may begin improving themselves.

Sources familiar with the matter were quoted as saying that a handful of Indian entities from both the government and private sectors have been granted access to Claude Mythos Preview, an AI model designed to identify software vulnerabilities and strengthen cyber defences. The number of Indian organisations currently participating remains limited. Asked how many Indian entities have secured access to the model, sources told PTI that the figure is “in the single digit for now". While the sources confirmed participation from both government agencies and private firms, they did not disclose the names of the organisations involved. PROJECT GLASSWING EXPANDS TO MORE COUNTRIES Project Glasswing has been described by Anthropic as a “collaborative effort to secure the world’s most important software".

The initiative seeks to bolster cybersecurity by providing select organisations access to Claude Mythos Preview, enabling them to identify weaknesses in software systems before they can be exploited. According to PTI, when the programme was first announced globally in April, around 50 partner organisations were given access to the model. Anthropic said those early participants had collectively identified more than 10,000 high- or critical-severity security flaws across various codebases. The company announced a major expansion of the programme earlier this week. As part of the latest phase, approximately 150 additional organisations across more than 15 countries have been brought into the initiative. PTI reported that the new group includes operators of critical infrastructure spanning sectors such as power, water, healthcare, communications and hardware. In a statement issued on June 2, Anthropic said, “And many of the new partners are vendors – companies or non-profits that maintain codebases that are relied upon by lots of other organisations around the world, including governments." The company added that participating organisations are generally those where a successful cyberattack could have significant consequences for large populations. According to PTI, Anthropic said these are organisations for which a cyber breach could have “far-reaching ramifications", potentially affecting more than 100 million people in some instances.
