Cisco adds Claude Mythos to AI Defense for red teaming

Cisco has announced the integration of Anthropic’s Claude Mythos into its AI Defense platform for red teaming purposes. This integration enables security teams to conduct adversarial testing of AI systems. AI Defense, launched in January 2025, has been used by hundreds of customers to identify flaws in AI models and applications before production deployment.

The Claude Mythos integration includes features for generating multi-step attack paths, secure access through AI Defense’s structured interface, and audit trails for testing actions. The system operates only against targets explicitly registered and authorized by enterprise customers and requires authentication tied to named operators.

Additionally, Cisco is enhancing its Splunk Agent Observability capabilities, introducing Tokenomics, a cost governance tool that connects AI spending with output quality using data from Amazon Bedrock and Amazon CloudWatch. This tool will be available in private preview in December and general availability in AWS Marketplace in early 2027.
