Anthropic Warns AI Risks Are Real, RoguePlanet Zero-Day Drops, Crypto Laundering Takedown

Anthropic is calling for governments to have the authority to stop deployment of advanced AI systems that pose unacceptable risks. CEO Dario Amodei points to the company's Mythos cybersecurity model as proof that AI has become a matter of national and strategic consequence, warning that cyber risks may soon be followed by biological and autonomy risks.

Meanwhile, security researcher Nightmare Eclipse has released RoguePlanet, a new Windows Defender zero-day that reportedly works against fully patched Windows 10 and Windows 11 systems. The disclosure comes shortly after Microsoft said it had no intention of pursuing action against security researchers, suggesting the dispute between the company and the researcher is far from over.

And European authorities have dismantled AudiA6, a cryptocurrency laundering operation that Europol says used thousands of fraudulent exchange accounts to help obscure the proceeds of ransomware attacks and other cybercrime. Investigators linked the service to more than 15 ransomware and major cryptocurrency theft investigations worldwide.
