Summary
Mythos Sparks Urgent Bank Meetings, AI Shrinks Exploit Windows, CEO Phishing Beats MFA + Crypto Fraud Bust Cybersecurity Today would like to thank Meter for their support in bringing you this podcast. Meter delivers a complete networking stack, wired, wireless and cellular in one integrated solution that's built for performance and scale. You can find them at Meter.com/cst Host David Shipley covers urgent meetings among U.S., Canadian, and U.K. financial leaders after Anthropic's Mythos announcement, with regulators and major banks assessing potential systemic risk; Mythos is described as capable of finding and chaining zero-days and is limited to a preview program (Project Glasswing) with select critical infrastructure and tech firms. The episode highlights how fast vulnerabilities are now exploited, citing a critical Marimo flaw patched in 0.2.3.0 that attackers probed within 9 hours and research showing AI can generate exploits from CVEs in 10–15 minutes. It then details "Venom," an invitation-only phishing-as-a-service targeting executives via QR codes to hijack sessions and register new devices, and Microsoft's warning about Storm-2755 redirecting Canadian paychecks by stealing M365 session cookies and altering direct-deposit details. Finally, Operation Atlantic is summarized: authorities identified 20,000 crypto-fraud victims, froze $12M, and linked $45M in stolen crypto tied to approval phishing. 00:00 Headlines and Sponsor 00:57 Mythos Shakes Finance 04:58 AI Exploit Window Collapses 08:11 Venom Targets Executives 11:54 Payroll Redirect Scam 14:35 Crypto Fraud Takedown 16:47 Wrap Up and Thanks 18:04 Sponsor Outro
