This approach has already led to the discovery of over 200 unknown vulnerabilities, including a critical GitHub bug, with fewer false positives. The release underscores the urgent need for advanced defensive AI as cyber threats evolve at machine speed, though experts caution that remediation efforts must accelerate to match discovery. Wiz's new AI system just beat Mythos and GPT-5.5 Cyber on a key vulnerability discovery benchmark. The cloud security provider, acquired by Google for $32 billion in March 2026, today announced Project Atlas, an AI-driven system for vulnerability research that scored 90.9% on CyberGym, beating Mythos at 83% and OpenAI's GPT-5.5 Cyber at 85%. CyberGym is a benchmark that tests the ability of AI agents to discover vulnerabilities, so the fact that Project Atlas outperformed Mythos suggests it could be a more effective defensive tool than Anthropic's unreleased frontier model.
