This opens up an interesting new avenue for corporate FOMO. What if you don't partner with Anthropic, miss out on access to their shiny new cybersec model, and then fall prey to a vuln that the model would have caught?

Since when did corporations care? Most seem to just pay their insurance premium for cyber liability and call it a day.

There is a difference between leaking user accounts and passwords and getting your business destroyed overnight entirely.

Imagine if an AI can infiltrate your SaaS database and delete your entire database and every single backup. The business is dead immediately.

Did that happen to a lot of companies during the log4shell fiasco? I'm sure some companies had their permissions misconfigured in a way such that a malicious actor who could execute code on their servers could also drop their database and delete their backups.

I don't know. But the point is that anyone who has access to this model might be able to do the same thing to any company or government.

This seems to be the mind-games play. FOMO at the moment, if they push it successfully you could even be labeled negligent for not paying them for it.
