Reuters: Australia's Home Affairs ministry says it is working with Anthropic on emerging Mythos vulnerabilities

Reuters reported that a spokesperson for Australian Home Affairs minister Tony Burke said the government is working with software providers including Anthropic to stay aware of emerging vulnerabilities linked to Mythos. The same report said the central banks of Australia and New Zealand were monitoring the release and that the Australian Banking Association said banks were engaging regulators over Mythos.

This moves Australia's position from sector-level monitoring into an explicit government critical-infrastructure coordination response tied directly to Anthropic and Mythos.
