Frontier AI, cyber resilience, and ASIC's call to action

AI models are getting better at chaining exploits, and ASIC is right to push for urgent cyber resilience. My take on where the real risk sits.

I have not seen evidence that Mythos (or GPT-5.5 Cyber) are revolutionary. Still: these models are getting better at tools and at chaining lower-severity bugs into access, persistence, and real damage.

Anthropic and OpenAI try to block malicious use. Two things stay true:

  • They do not always succeed
  • Less-scrutinised labs are not far behind

So ASIC's recommendations land for financial institutions - and for everyone else:

  1. Know critical assets and systems
  2. Patch fast; fix the process that makes patching slow
  3. Test incident response under pressure, not only on paper

The Five Eyes agencies later said the same timeline in sharper words - months, not years. Your risk register should already assume faster exploit development.
