Mythos: 4 questions every security leader should answer before July | CBTS

Brian Quinn — Tue, 09 Jun 2026 07:49:46 GMT

Eighty of the world’s top security minds published a working response to the AI vulnerability storm. We synthesized what matters most.

On April 7, 2026, Anthropic announced Claude Mythos Preview, an AI system that autonomously found thousands of previously unknown security flaws across the software the world depends on, including a bug in OpenBSD that had gone undetected for 27 years. It also generated working attack code without human guidance at a success rate no human team could match.

Your technology is only as stable as the partner behind it | CBTS

Most IT leaders I meet have done vendor diligence. They have run the RFP, reviewed financial statements, checked roadmaps, and sat through analyst briefings. By the time they sign, they know their OEM inside and out. What they almost never scrutinize with the same rigor is the layer sitting between them and that OEM: the integrator. An IT integrator, sometimes called a value-added technology reseller, is the organization that manages that OEM relationship on your behalf, owns your day-to-day support, and is accountable when something breaks. Most organizations spend years vetting their OEM and almost no time vetting the partner who manages it. That is where the risk lives.

The AI paradox in finance: Sharing data you’ve spent decades securing

Myre Biff — Tue, 19 May 2026 09:41:27 GMT

Financial institutions face an AI paradox. Decades of data security—firewalls, access controls, hardened perimeters—now stand in the way. These same measures block the access that AI needs to create value. Financial services organizations know where their data lives. They know who’s responsible for it, and how to protect it. That’s not the issue. The issue: AI needs high-quality, accessible data brought together in one environment. Models, analysts, and applications all need access. AI asks institutions to open what they’ve spent decades locking down. This is a breakpoint that must be solved — and it’s one we see playing out across the institutions we work with.

Justin.rice@cbts.com (Justin Rice) — Mon, 23 Mar 2026 11:59:10 GMT

If you’ve submitted a purchase order recently and found yourself questioning whether the quote you received last quarter is still valid, you’re not alone. Technology pricing has become one of the most unpredictable variables in enterprise IT planning, and the forces driving that volatility are not short-term noise. They’re structural shifts that every organization buying technology needs to understand.
