Cybersecurity stocks fell sharply Friday after reports that Anthropic is testing Mythos, described as its most powerful model yet, with enhanced capabilities that present potential security risks. CrowdStrike and Palo Alto Networks dropped 7%, while Tenable fell nearly 11%. Anthropic plans a cautious rollout due to cybersecurity implications.

Anthropic has released Claude Code Security, an AI tool designed to identify code vulnerabilities that traditional security scanners overlook. The announcement prompted an immediate decline in cybersecurity stock valuations.
