Payward joins Anthropic Glasswing to use Claude Mythos for AI-driven vulnerability hunting

Aug 18, 2026By ClusterWire.news· AI-assisted news brief

Payward, the parent company behind crypto exchange Kraken, says it has joined Anthropic’s Project Glasswing, a program that provides vetted organizations access to Anthropic’s cybersecurity AI tools. Reporting on the move frames it as an effort to improve software security and hunt for vulnerabilities rather than as a broader commercial partnership, with details on timelines or terms not emphasized in the announcements covered by multiple outlets [1] [2].

According to coverage, Payward’s participation centers on using Anthropic’s cybersecurity model—described in reporting as involving Claude Mythos—to identify potential software vulnerabilities, with findings discussed as being shared as open-source results. The announcement highlights an increasing focus on applying AI for proactive security work in systems tied to digital assets [3] [4].

The reports indicate Payward’s Project Glasswing involvement is aimed at AI-assisted vulnerability research using Anthropic’s cybersecurity capabilities, with emphasis on security outcomes rather than partnership logistics [1] [4].
