Wiz And Google Have An Answer To Mythos, And It’s Not A Model
Wiz and Google have unveiled Project Atlas, an AI-driven system for vulnerability research that outperformed Anthropic's Mythos model on the CyberGym benchmark. Unlike standalone models, Atlas utilizes a collaborative network of specialized AI agents to identify security flaws.
Why it matters
The shift toward multi-model AI systems represents a new frontier in cybersecurity, potentially offering more robust defense mechanisms against automated threats.

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.
